That's about right--4 miles, give or take. Although the pitstop sign said Verdun, the mayor said--my French is lousy, but I think he said Wargemoulin. At least the buildings seem to match.

The matt was at Wargemoulin... http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,21726.msg515136.html#msg515136
I can't figure out where the racers spent the night though. As far as I can see there is no place to stay in Wargemoulin and their cars that they use in the next episode were back in Massiges somewhere.
In the post race interviews they show the racers in front of a fireplace with "Espace Bernadette Poncelette" written above it - but that doesn't lead me to any obvious hotels in the area.
Could we have a moving pit stop again?
DrRox:
It's only 40 miles/60 km from Wargemoulin to Rheims............so doesn't sound good for a moving pit stop.

I can't imagine how Joe could have used the bike with his foot being as painful and difficult to use as it was. (His only option would have been to walk (with the bike) the four kilometers and that might have still been deemed a violation of Race rules requiring a penalty for not following the directions in the clue.

If Joe had made it to the bicycles, walking with a bike would have been allow because it is actually slower (its own penalty). Joe sitting on a bike and pedaling with one foot would be faster than walking.
DrRox:
Personally, I think it would have been easier for Joe to ride the bike 4 miles than walk 4 miles. On the bike, he would not have to support his weight on that bad knee. He might not have gone very fast, but I think it would have been less stress on that bad knee. But that is just my 2 cents.
