"TAR Spotted Filming Last Week"
My friends were in Jamaica on vacation last week and spotted TAR filming at a resort there. They saw three teams (at least one was a male/female couple -- not Rob & Amber ) do either a roadblock or a detour (involving hitting golf balls to a specified area). They said the third team was far behind the other two (like five hours).

Something is fishy here.  If the team that is supposed to be Romber is running five hours behind, how in the world did Uchenna and Joyce get mugged in Jamaica and not Romber?

And if the Roadblock deals with hitting golf balls, I guess Amber will have to do it since Rob has used up his six roadblocks.  Too bad, since he is suposed to be good at golf.

I am already getting nervous about the final show!!!!  I really hope that ROMBER wins but if not UJ.

Pedaler:
Hope everyone's having fun.  This is the last show for a while. }}{

Though I'd post a link to a map of Jamaica and identify potential areas of interest:

Kingston Airport is at G15

I've seen three possible location for the raft poling location
Great River B4
Martha Brae River B7  (empties into sea at Falmouth)
Rio Grande E17  (my guess)

Port Antonio E18 (opening sequence)

Ocho Rios C12  (other sites ID this as jump roadblock)

One note about the golfing in Jamaica spoiler.  During TAR5, there was a New Zealand airport spoiler.  The spoiler listed 5 teams, the first team included a mysterious blonde.  Many thought the blonde was Mirna.  But there was no first team.  But the other four teams made it to the airport in the exact same order as the spoiler.  I'm bringing this up because maybe the third team, five hours behind, in the golf spoiler doesn't exist.  But the first two teams did.

Traegen:
Pedaler that makes sense if the other half of the detour is the raft which we've only seen Rob and Amber on. My only concern is that both Rob and Amber like to golf so why wouldn't they take it.

My ideas for why Rob and Amber wouldn't do the golf detour:
1. It rafting is closer to the clue box
2. The specifics of the golf challenge leave it very much up to luck (I.E. hit a floating/moving target) or the number of times you must hit the target is high and therefore takes a while
3. R/K and U/J both take golf and Romber see the rafting as a way to get ahead.

Traegen,  That would be my guess.  R&A are in attack mode.  Amber has taken a lot of crap during the race but she didn't hestitate at all when Rob suggested taking the earlier flight to London when they weren't guaranteed a seat to London from Frankfurt.

In fact, I think she was more confident than Rob.
