Argentina and China are overused and Norway has been visited a few times in the last few seasons, but otherwise a good route.
Zack.:
Argentina and Switzerland have both been visited 6 times though? I think the bigger issue is that the trips atop Swiss mountains all blur together visually whereas all the terrible legs in Argentina are distinct.
Also while I disliked TAR 14 in general, I liked how the first leg and more specifically, first clue tested travel skills out of the jump. I imagine a variation of this for modern TAR would resemble
First clue - "Make your way to Confucius' final resting place to receive your next clue."
Said resting place is his family tomb in Qufu, China, which has no airport but has a fairly developed train station. Have teams leave the starting line in the morning and hint at the cities to fly to (Beijing or Shanghai, which, when factoring in customs / travel end up arriving ~20-30 minutes apart) to see what kind of skills they have with travel and problem solving.

You're correct, both Argentina & Switzerland are visited 6 times already. I really don't get why Argentinian legs don't get good tasks when there are loads to be done there. If TAR does decide to make legs there in the future, I really do hope the production treats Argentina like its their 1st visit there. Make better leg designs. The one in bold, is the one I'd like to see in modern times. Have racers figure out on how to get to the destination they need to go to, compared to recent seasons where it is spoonfed.
