And they do have those red shirts...

Obvious, but Jodi, Victoria, and maybe Kris are also doing the roadblock.

We already have the ROADBLOCK which is the bungee jump at the Verzasaca Dam. With such little time (one hour) to get all the introductions in, travel to Switzerland (including an overnight in Ticino,) travel to Interlaken I think that there is only one more task to be done - the cheese run - before the pit stop.
In 12 of the previous 13 TARs only one ep 1 had both a Roadblock and a Detour. The one series that had both (TAR 10) was a two hour program with a double elimination.
So, to me, it looks like
(1)the teams travel (by car) from the start point (Los Almitos) to LAX airport.
(2)Fly to Switzerland via Zurich or Milano.
(3)Take the train to Locarno
(4) Taxi to Ticino/Locate Plaza Piazza/Get tomorrow start times from Priest
(5)Overnight camping out in the cold. (Did they bring sleeping bags?)
The Next Day
(6) Taxi to Verzasca Dam
(7) Perform the ROADBLOCK bungee jump.
(8) Travel by taxi to Locarno
(9) Continue by rail on to Interlaken.
(10)Get a clue somewhere in Interlaken.
(11) Find taxi and proceed to the cheese task somewhere outside of Interlaken.
(12) Perform the ADDITIONAL CHEESE TASK, (carry four wheels of cheese down the hill to the hut at the bottom)
(13) Find taxi and travel to the pit stop location (the infamous house with green shutters).
(14) The last team there is eliminated.

I wish they had to self drive themselves to the pitstop.

;D Here's a TAR tie-in for you movie buffs. We all know that "Goldeneye" was filmed at the dam near Locarno, but did you know that "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" was shot on location in Bern (Berner Oberland), Murren, Lauterbrunnen, and Grindelwald. I recently watched it on VOD, and saw plenty of green shutters and cow bells. :lol:
