"Five Continents…Ten Countries…And More Than Fifty-Nine Thousand Miles" -- After traveling to five continents, 10 countries and more than 59,000 thousand miles, one Team will be the first to cross the Finish Line and take home the one million dollar grand prize, on the two-hour season finale of THE AMAZING RACE 9, Wednesday, May 17 (8:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.
As the Teams race through Japan, they quickly learn that little mistakes can cost big time when there are only three teams left and the finish line is within reach. The last two legs of the Race around the world prove both mentally and physically grueling and it is a tight contest until the very end.

Something about gingerman's comments about the detour got me going on this search. Turns out there is a DHL Express Center 3 minutes walk from the Yoyogi Station (north of the Shibuya Station) in Shibuya-ku. Also, I found a bike rental area in Yoyogi Park (near Harajuku Station, north of Shibuya Station). Coincidence ???
Not sure if these are in any way connected, but sure sounds interesting. :)

I can't remember either!
I just guessing this is the location of the Ray & Yolanda clip:

Believe I've identified where Tyler is riding his bike. He appears to be riding NORTH thru Shubuya Crossing with the Q Front building (Starbucks store) in the background.
That would mean he must have started out near the Shibuya Station and is heading north toward Yoyogi Park.
