--- Quote from: Slowhatch on December 08, 2005, 01:12:30 AM ---They might be entering from the St. Jacques kiosk.
(Still don't know what they might be doing there. As I mentioned before, it's not a hub or intersection, and the area surrounding the station looks like a dull metro high-rise section)

spec blatantly swiped from another board (twop thanks to mtlchickie)
--- Quote ---The airport is about 15 minutes west of the downtown core, and the Olympic Stadium is in the East End. I suspect they will take the metro to either Pie IX or Viau station.
Edit: Based on the AOL preview, they use the Place Victoria metro, head to American Pavillion from Expo 67 on Ile Notre Dame (faster to access it from the metro which will most likely mean to switch lines at Berri-UQUAM), and the trapeze place is here

Woman with kids looking for " the tall ships " Kajama .heard them talking about needing shots of the CN Tower and needing to plan travel to Montreal. 'whichever team was next was a full six hours behind.'

Pedaler:
--- Quote ---If you were to go up center street on block, and make a left onto River Road, you could follow river road all the way to Joe Davis...a total trip time of less than five minutes.

Thanks for all the good info, Niagara Falls.
A couple of questions for you if you don't mind.
What time of day on the 31st were you at the park?
How long would it take to get to Lewiston from both Toronto and Montreal (by plane or car?)
--- Quote ---Krazi they were already mugged , they are probably lugging around what clothes they have left since they have no camper or car yet to store it in ,same goes for the Bransens seen toting a small black bag .

Puddin, I wouldn't be surprised if there was no NEL leg. This could be kind of like TARs 5 and 6. The final 3 teams race to the pit stop and only stop to wait on a flight or hours of operation.

I know it would but stupid to mug a team at this point but it was done TAR7 with 3 teams reamaining , thanks to Raceygirls airport pics U&J were seen carrying a plastic bag only . also Phil said something about one of several pre-determined NEL's when the Weasels were mugged so who knows your guess is as good as mine Pedaler :lolCX: ?
Chateau d If:
Puddin, here's the map.
We will have to sort out the timing of how to get from place to place. The sans NEL idea may be essential for stuff to fit.
