TAR 16 Leg 5: Right before Detour (first real task of Leg)
TAR 15 Leg 9: Right before Roadblock (first task of leg)
TAR 15 Leg 11: Right before Roadblock (first task of leg)
TAR 14 Leg 6: Right before Detour, after Roadblock
TAR 14 Leg 9: Before Roadblock and Detour
TAR 13 Leg 7: Right (before/after? - can someone verify please?) Detour, after Roadblock
TAR 13 Leg 10: Right before Detour, after Roadblock
I won't go back further, but usually they are earlier in the leg rather than later. :tup:

Hooky,
You have done a great job, so I have gone further back. This is not onerous, as SpeedBumps started with Amazing Race 12 and they were only two in that race. Kynt and Vyxsin had one in ep. 8 in Mumbai, the yoga exercises before the DETOUR or the ROADBLOCK. TK and Rachel had one in ep. 10, the firecracker run and hosing in central Taiwan, before the ROADBLOCK or DETOUR.

According to YakC here, TK and Rachel did the Speedbump AFTER the Roadblock and BEFORE the Detour.

Thank you Evan and thank Yizhi for us! Always nice to have another pair of eyes on the ground! Good confirmations. Would he like to make a site visit to the road near the temples?? The running teams are still not firm... :lol:
I don't think that Khoo Kongsi is a match though, I think Neobie's Thnee Kong Thua (天公壇), or Altar of the Jade Emperor is a better photo match.
Will need to look at the beach/hotel photos too, the Mutiara looks pretty good.
Evan_Weinstein:
i can try, anyway a few relatives and i will be dropping by Penang on Saturday (Singapore Time)

The ROADBLOCK was the rocking and underwater car in JiJi. One written source indicating that it was after the SpeedBump was the basis for my statement. However, with your different facts (and they can't both be right), I went to my Amazing Race 12, episode 10 tape to settle the issue. The SpeedBump occurred after Rachel finished the ROADBLOCK, so Dr. Rox is correct on this point of fact,
Slowhatch:
Here's a video of some recent coconut smashing for the Thaipusam festival (check out the guy with the Iron Man pendant :lol:). As Evan noted, the dates aren't in sync (they rarely are).
