Not an entire list, just something I found by chance while searching Dubai videos: The mother of all ziplines. :hero: :lol:

wow, that's a nice one! And I hope that I could go there and try it. :casey
btw, the world's fastest zip line is located in Sun City in Rustenburg, South Africa, just 2 hours away from Johannesburg and a possible venue for 2010 Fifa World Cup! And here's the info from wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rustenburg
So, I would edit on my TAR 16 wishlist on the South African leg part:
Leg 3: Cape Town, South Africa and the pit stop will be in Cape Agulhas, the southernmost point in Africa
Leg 4: Johannesburg and Rustenburg, South Africa and the pit stop will be in Sun City
that will be nice! ;D

So, I decided to do a "CBS inspired" course. 11 legs + 1 TBC:
START: Atlanta, Georgia (large enough city to get into and out of, but with enough transportation options to make it a challenge to get to the airport. Plus, peach can spy on them)
Leg 1: Kauai, Hawaii (budget friendly, but with the potential to have amazing, non-derivative tasks)
Leg 2: Singapore (a non horrible leg, mayhaps?)
Leg 3: Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei (new SE Asian country that's still safe for travel)
Leg 4: Varanasi, India (yes, India again, but India has so much in its culture that it merits another visit. Ideally this leg wouuld start in Kolkata, and then have a train ride to Varanasi for the RB/Pit Stop)
Leg 4b: Kolkata, India (...only to be told to keep racing.)
Leg 5: Petra, Jordan (and heck, they could even have a leg in Amman)
Leg 6: Sevastopol, Ukraine (if they were going for a military-inspired leg in TAR10, Sevastopol would've been the best choice)
Leg 7: Nairobi, Kenya (15 seasons and no Pit Stop yet?)
Leg 8: Nairobi, Kenya (...and if they're avoiding Africa due to cost, then this would be probably the easiest way to do it; one leg focusing on the flora and fauna, one leg focusing on everyday life/industrial life)
Leg 9: Copenhagen, Denmark (the Shakespeare fan in me wants a Pit Stop at the Helsingor. Aside from that, Copenhagen is kind of an awesome city)
Leg 10: Gibraltar (mainly for the macaques)
Leg 11: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (large enough city to fly into, but with enough in the way of stuff to do that there could be an entertaining final leg here. Plus, pudding can spy on them.)
