Gettysburg isn't even an hours drive from Lancaster .
NEXT TIME ON .. THE AMAZING RACE:
Paolo kid: Mom, please be quiet. Please.
Phil voiceover: The Paolos continue to feud.
Mom: None of you ever, ever listen to me!
Kid, driving: Gimme the damn map!
Phil voiceover: The families find themselves in a Civil War battle.
Looks like Gettysburg to me (http://www.69thnysv.org/gallery.htm)
Teams participate in a battle, shooting, carrying bodies on stretchers.
Various contestants: Unbelievable! Goosebumps! Can't even put it into words!
Phil voiceover: And Wally can't keep up with his daughters.
In a field, two daughters lift a stretcher.
Wiping sweat, Wally: I can't, guys. Ugh.

Looks like this?
Shoe House Will Not Be Bed and Breakfast
The Shoe House, a landmark in the York, Pennsylvania, area (not far from Lancaster County, which is best-known as home to the Amish) will not become a bed and breakfast after all. According to an article in the Hanover Evening Sun, the home was purchased by a couple who intend to continue its use as a tourist attraction.
A previous report that a couple had the property under contract and intended to use it as a B&B did not come to fruition. "I'm a typical woman. I love shoes," said new co-owner Carleen Farabaugh. "[This is] the most expensive shoe I ever bought."
The 25-foot-tall stucco replica of a shoe, located just off Route 30, is home to three bedrooms, a kitchen, two bathrooms and a living room. The current owners bought it in 1995 at a foreclosure sale, and have run it as a tourist attraction. It currently has an ice cream parlor on the first floor. The home was built in 1948 by Mahlon N. Haines as a to advertise his 42 Haines Shoe Co. stores in Pennsylvania and Maryland. Free weekend stays -- including servants, an automobile and a chauffeur -- were given to couples as part of the publicity stunt.

Thanks supsandalee !

where are my map pros ?? What im looking for is the possability that the teams detour from Lancaster from RT30 to Gettysburg to Maybe Williamsport PA. to Washington .
I suck but .. just found this interesting while searching
(http://img381.imageshack.us/img381/2843/hihleastmap8bn.gif)

A covert operation? And then someone says he'll do it (Linz)? Sounds like a Roadblock to me...and I thought there wouldn't be Roadblocks in this version.
-
and hes shown having a hard time of it Mandy which probably means he does just fine..with those good looks he will be alright :nods:
-
Here is Shoehouse (http://imageatlas.globexplorer.com/ImageAtlas/view.do?group=ImageAtlas&lat=39.998&lon=-76.636&zoom_level=10).
Here is the route (http://maps.google.com/maps?spn=0.219804,0.279842&saddr=3392+Blue+Rock+Rd,+lancaster,+pa++17603&daddr=Shoehouse+Rd,+York,+PA+17406&hl=en) if Shoehouse is the first clue.
The odd thing is that they are looking at it in bright daylight!!?!! And we know htat all teams check in way before sunset.
So here comes another wild ass prediction: Pitstops for TARF are 24 hours
-
I posted this elsewhere but repeat it here:
The Annual Gettysburg Battle Reenactment was held on July 1 to July 3, 2005. Our teams would be there on July 9. The only Civil War Reenactment listed for July 9 - 10 is the Battle of Rich Mountain in Beverly, West Virginia. An important battle which secured the Shenandoah Valley for the Union.
But the battle area looks like it could be Gettysburg, but did TAR and CBS has enough clout to get all the re-enacters back for another go just for them on the weekend of July8 and 9? Hard to tell.
Nice scenes of my stomping ground in Washington, DC. The National Mall, Lincoln Memorial, Korea War memorial (and I never knew they were here) Is there a pit stop here and do we lose another team before we reach Huntsville, Alabama??
-
The thing is if the Teams leave Lancaster and travel down RT30 it takes them directly to Gettysburg
FROM YORK, PA: Take US Rt 30 West to Gettysburg. At Gettysburg Square, complete ¼ of the way around the circle and go north on Rt 34 (Biglerville Road) 2.3 miles. Turn left on South Avenue. Patriot’s Choice entrance is 1/8 mile ahead.

I'm dropping the 24 hour Pit Stop idea. I can't get the timeline to work with it. I guess the team that is shown going by the shoehouse could have gotten very lost and and it took them several hours to find it.
12 hr Pit Stop mode
Thu July 7th, Race starts in NYC, teams set up tents before sunset in Philadelphia
Fri July 8th, 10 to 11 am teams head out to Lancaster area, Leg 1 ends 2:30 to 5:30 pm.
Sat July 9th, Leg 2 starts 2:30 to 5:30 am, teams go to shoe, Gettysburg, DC, ends on the mall by 4 pm, NEL, Phil flies out of Dulles that night
Sun July 10th, Leg 3 starts around sunrise, flight to South Carolina, task, board buses around 3 pm, busses arrive in Huntsville around midnight.
Mon July 11th, SUVs head out from 12 am to 4 am
I had to use an NEL due to the Huntsville observation that only one team had been eliminated at that point.

Yea, that it the Rohrer Family Farmhouse. We saw Phil come through there.
BTW, Puddin, the Rohrer place is not in Mt Joy. That was where the Detour was. But its not far away either.
-
I'll fix it Chateau :cheeky:
this from an article way back when
Fans will see just as many of those pesky "roadblocks" and "detours," while "yields," which force one team to stop racing for a period of time, "are more effective and more frustrating to people than (they've) ever been."
The kid-friendly contest, which includes fewer non-elimination episodes, did require certain concessions: Over the 30-day race, filmed mostly in July, teams traveled 30,000 miles, far less than the 72,000 traversed by teams on the sixth season. And more family-friendly, less-crowded locales were chosen.

That Link works Slowhatch .. did they say Find wounded Soldiers or 5 wounded soldiers ? Nice that I could pause and rewind .. that AOL hates me {l{
-
I thought I heard 5. I'm impressed with all the silence they've accomplished; families with kids, hundreds of Civil War "extras," and nobody has talked.
-
Yeah 5 makes more sense than " find " I just wanted to be sure I heard that right .. :yaya:

nevermind this is the Gaghans leaving the Rohrer farm .. I just watched last weeks Ep and saw the Trelis .

Thanks for the link to the preview.
Are they going to be able perform the battlefield detour and the Washington roadblock all in the same day?
Chateau, Can you tell by the shadows of the people the approximate times?
-
If the teams are leaving the farm pitstop in daylight, does this hint that the pit stop lasts for 24 hours and not just 12? Most teams arrived by mid afternoon (between 3 and 4) which would mean they would leave at 3 or 4 in the morning.
But, on the other hand, if they did not leave until 3 or 4 in the afternoon, they would have a lot to get done in Gettysburg, and Washington DC before it gets dark around 8:30PM. Perhaps the pit stop is a new compromised 18 hours so that the teams would start to leave for the Shoe House at about 9:00AM.
If the Detour is at Gettysburg it looks like one task has to do with picking up five wounded soldiers, while another task (Weavers) may have something to do with flags (they are walking down road with flag) This may be difficult for the Gaghans so they may opt for the flag chore also. One shot seems to show the little girl heading toward a flagstaf of some sort.
In Washington it looks like the clue box is up near the capitol building, then the roadblock is to find someone with a similar briefcase and make the exchange which occurs down near the Lincoln monument (that's a pretty far walk from one end of the mall to the other)
Question: is there a pitstop in Washington DC or do they head to Reagan National Airport and catch a flight to Charleston, SC???
-
Oh your good Gman , I was thinking the Flag the Weavers are running with had something to do with the Soldiers . Any guesses as to what the detour Tasks will be named ?
Flag or Drag ]][
looks like Carrisa is headed for the Flag !

For getting the times lets start with: it’s about 1 hour 55 min from Belmont Plateau to Brubaker Farms (http://maps.google.com/maps?spn=1.369135,2.082184&saddr=5201+Par+Joy,+PA+17552&hl=en).
And about 25 min from Brubaker Farms to the Ruhrer Family Farm (http://maps.google.com/maps?spn=0.171268,0.260273&saddr=493+Musser+Road,+Mount+Joy,+PA+17552&daddr=3392+Blue+Rock+Rd,+Lancaster+PA&hl=en).
Note that since the Brubaker place is on the East side of Musser Road those teams that took a right were going the long way. They probably thought they had to go back into central Lancaster.
So if you say the detour took the Gaghans 90 min (that's 1 mph buggy pushing) we can expect their check-in time to be about 1:50 pm. I would guess that the Linz Team took 15 min longer to push the buggy and since they started from Belmont Plateau one hour later their check-in time should be about 3:05 pm.
The Godlewski sisters rocked with the build-it part of the detour since they left Belmont Plateau one hour after the Gaghans but finished the leg first.
-
DAY 2, 10 AM
Spoiler alert!
For the first detour, on a scenic farm in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, the teams must choose between hauling an Amish buggy along a 16-mile route or assembling a minibarn with a waterwheel. The Weavers arrive and go for the buggies, but later change their minds, the buggies weight 500 pounds. The Aiellos go for the buggies, "Oh, it's brutal" says Matt.
Van Munster wants to observe the buggy race more closely. "I need to know every detail" he says. "I'm going to follow them into the corn," The Gaghans, who have tow small kids, also choose the buggies. Think they can't hack it? (Hint: Even 9-year-old Carissa runs a seven-minute mile) The kids sing a victory song as they barrel past a stronger team, with mom Tammy effortlessly hauling the buggy. "She's an animal!" van Munster shouts. The teams collect their next clue: Off to the Pit Stop.
3 PM
After the teams finish the leg, Keoghan says he realizes another way this may differ from the past: "I expect it will be the most emotional Pit Stops we've ever had. I know that I'm going to be kicking kids off," Coexecutive producer Hayma "Screech" Washington adds, "You don't have to get out of the country to have a great event. That whole Washington Crossing thing? It was good. You feel like you stepped back in history. And we have a lot more of that coming up... but I can't tell you what." Be sure to bring the kids.
thanks to puddin's scan
according to TV Guide, last team checked in around 3 PM
and Phil gave away the eliminated team: a team with kids. }}

For our time line masters:
According to Google map it is 27 minutes from the farm to the Shoe House in York, PA. So it would make more sense to go to the Shoe House first and then down route 30 to Gettysburg.
If the actual reenactment was done the previous weekend (July 1-3) perhaps CBS shot the master overview scenes and the aerials at that time, and then just have a lesser number of participants coming back the following weekend. Most Civil War Enacters are dedicated souls, but they all have regular jobs to pay the bills, so I don't think many of them could hang around or take more time off to come back. But CBS has DEEP DEEP POCKETS so perhaps they made it worth their while.
Next map we need is from Gettysburg to Washinton DC
The clue box looks like it is at the capitol end of the Mall (4th Street) while the walk around is down at the Lincoln Memorial (24th street) That's more than a good miles hike!

The sun is sometimes blocked by clouds on the day of this first leg. Fortunately, when the Godlewski sisters arrive at the barn there is enough sun light to cast a shadow. The peak of the barn’s roof does this against the front wall of the barn. Using some trig I figured out that (there’s a lot visual estimating going on for this part) the time was 2:05 pm. Similarly, when the Linz Team arrives there we have enough sunlight to make an estimate that the time of day was 2:46 pm. Add a couple minutes for getting to the mat and these are my estimates:
Godlewski 2:07 pm
Linz 2:48 pm
I really don’t think the Blacks arrived close to the Linz Team (editing: there is sun, there is no sun, there is sun …).
And the Paulos getting out of their SUV was a retake later in the day.

Looks like CBS's deep pockets paid off to keep the Gettysburg reenacters around for another weekend!
Gettysburg task looks like the DETOUR and how about this for a title: SEARCH OR RESCUE?
Each with its own pros and cons. In RESCUE teams must locate five wounded soldiers and move them on stretchers to the field hospital. While there are many wounded soldiers on the field, the task of moving them (distance) to the field hospital will be a very physical task. In SEARCH teams must locate a battle flag which matches the picture they have. While this is not a very physical task, locating the right flag among the hundreds on the field of battle may take a long time!
This task is similar to ones TAR has had before most recently in Iceland (search the ice lagoon or scale the ice wall)
So far we have identified the Bransens, Aiellos, Godlewskis, and Linzes doing the RESCUE task (these are the more physical capable teams). And we have those teams with the youngest members, the Weavers and Gaghans opting for the less physical SEARCH task.
Meanwhile ther Paolos, Schroeders, and Rogers are MIA.
-
SEARCH OR RESCUE
I Love that Gman !!
Friday night probably no new promos but tomorrow and Sunday during the games maybe some PIP's ?
Gman do you think its a extended leg or elimination ? Would they right out tell us " No Pitstops " or do you just think someone has to pee and they have no " pitstops?" which makes no sense because as you know rest areas are not that hard to find unless of course you are stuck in traffic.
-
Hard to tell. But I think that NO PIT STOPS refers to long car rides with no stops. On some roads reststops may be hard to find, and if they are nearing Washington DC at the time there really is no place to stop.
But if they don't stop at night, this is going to be one long trip between Lancaster PA to Gettysburg to Washington then on the Charlston SC and finally bus to Huntsville, Alabama arriving late Monday night. And if we have a pitstop and elimination then only eight teams would be arriving at NASA. So perhaps Chateau's NEL may be valid (but do we have the kids then begging on the streets of Washington on Sunday morning??????)
It looks like where ever they go they will have SUV's (GM, of course) waiting. Hard to get four people in cabs sometimes and with camera crew that would make six which is impossible. And I note that the Yukons have built-in micro cameras in the headrests which account for some of the distorted shots we have seen of the teams in the middle seat (why not spred out to the third seat?)

July 9-10: A Soldier’s Life On Campaign – the 141st Anniversary of the Battle of Monocacy
A living history program will feature Union and Confederate soldiers depicting the Confederate attempt to threaten the United States capital, and the Union success in delaying their march. Discover why this became known as “the battle that saved Washington, D.C.” Artillery and Infantry demonstrations will illustrate military actions while a Saturday evening campfire will provide a musical look at another side of soldier life.

I don't trust this news reporter. The reenactment of Gettysburg is huge. The one in the preview is just a small scale.
She probably saw the promo and then guessed it's Gettysburg.
edit: large scale reenactment with a lot of spectators.

So I got the Linz brother wrong and the battlefield wrong ( I must need sleep or bi-focals (::) )
Shame on the writer of the Gettysburg article , how dare he try to fool the TAR detectives )<
-
I posted this elsewhere but repeat it here:
The Annual Gettysburg Battle Reenactment was held on July 1 to July 3, 2005. Our teams would be there on July 9. The only Civil War Reenactment listed for July 9 - 10 is the Battle of Rich Mountain in Beverly, West Virginia. An important battle which secured the Shenandoah Valley for the Union.
But the battle area looks like it could be Gettysburg, but did TAR and CBS has enough clout to get all the re-enacters back for another go just for them on the weekend of July8 and 9? Hard to tell.
Nice scenes of my stomping ground in Washington, DC. The National Mall, Lincoln Memorial, Korea War memorial (and I never knew they were here) Is there a pit stop here and do we lose another team before we reach Huntsville, Alabama??

OH BOY !!!!!!! You guys ROCK !! {**}
-
I do think you have found the match, Pud; the picture in the nps Monocacy blurb look very similar (Note mowed field pattern and rail fences). Sorry, I'm no smarty pants, just damn lucky and unbelieving of CBS's clout to get these reenacters back for a second go at Gettysburg on July 9. And look at map - Monocacy is right on the route (Interstate 270) from York and Gettysburg to Washington, DC.I took another look at all the pictures from the Gettysburg site and I can not find anything nearly matching the field we see in our aerial shot. Pud is right there are a heck of a lot more reenacters at Gettysburg each year as it is probably the biggest Civil War Reenactment event of the year. Someone is just trying to mislead us; if we hear them say that they are at Gettysburg I will lose faith in CBS; that would be just too big of a stretch even for them.
Note one more thing: I count what looks like seven white stretchers lined up in the upper left corner just waiting for the teams.
That does look like a briefcase in right hand. Chateau, you are our expert on sun time: note that the shadows are directly under the trees on the grounds of the Washington Monument (note slight hill and snow fences which have been around the area for a few months) To me this would put it around 1:00PM EDT. And the pix of the Linz brother with the briefcase in front of the Lincoln Monument has just a small shadow directly under him. But if it is only a little after noon in Washington, does this give the teams enough time to be at the Shoe House in York first thing in the morning (6:00AM) drive to Monocacy National Battlefield to do the Detour and then drive on to Washington DC arriving at noon to get the clue for the Roadblock at the Capitol. Are we missing something?
-
It looks to me that the TAR footage does not take place in the historically accurate location marked above. I think they had to perform the "rescue" pseudo reenactment at a different but nearby part of Monocacy Park.

From the AOL preview we see Rollo Weaver read “Drive yourselves to Washington DC. Outside the SUV you can see the same white fencing that is around the Shoehouse. This means the battle reenactment is either before shoehouse or after Washington DC. That is strange because the Shoehouse is only about 25 min (http://maps.google.com/maps?spn=0.219804,0.279842&saddr=3392+Blue+Rock+Rd,+lancaster,+pa++17603&daddr=Shoehouse+Rd,+York,+PA+17406&hl=en) from the Leg 1 pits stop.

Could it be that "Drive yourselves to Washington DC" is only part of the instructions? Could the instructions tell them to first drive to Monocacy Maryland and find the clue box and then drive yourselves to Washington DC?
From the look of the shadows when the Weavers and the girl with blond hair and white hat are picking up the clue in front of the pool in front of the capitol the shadows are coming from the left. The National Mall runs almost perfectly East to West with the Capitol on the Eastern End and Lincoln Memorial to the West. From the look of the shadows they are coming from the South East or mid morning. The shadows of the two men with the briefcases (Bransen and Linz) seem to be directly under them or around 1PM EDT.
So the question is if they go first to the Shoe House and then to Monocacy would it still be mid-moring when the arrived in Washington?
So perhaps they do go directly to Washington from York; do the roadblock in Washington and then retreat to Monocacy for the reenactment and camp out?
Chateau, our sun and shadow expert, what times do you see for the Washington gig?

can't trust those editors. Remember in TAR5: "It's OK to run them over!"
so they probably edit, "Drive yourself to Washington D.C."

When I first saw the flag frames, I thought the flag was torn (and all-blue). But it turns out many cavalry units adopted a "swallowtail" design because the full-size flag was a hassle to move around. Source (http://www.michigan.gov/mikids/0,1607,7-163-15941_20554---4,00.html)

NEL /extended episode ? I'm not buying it .. my guess's . Linz family 1ST place , probably the Godlewskis second , Aiellos third ,Weavers 4th>>> [^/<<< , Bransens 5th ( then I have no idea ) my guess for last place the Paolos _-^

according to this chart, the Paolos is the worst. They should be eliminated next.

I got this very clearly on my DVR. It is just water coming out of a tap. They are shown filling a tin cup. Then the pour that into something else that is a few inches away. Or maybe they were just pouring it out of the cup. In part of the clip you see them with 50 to 100 of these tin cups set out in the grass.
-
Oh i've been bugging my BF for DishNetwork )< ! I have cable Chateau but it so happens that the lowest channels 2 thru 6 the major networks SUCK (:;) , cable dude has no explanation for it !!
So they have to fill the tincups with water from the barrel and pour it into something else ?? sounds like something the Gaghans could actually do :t-up: , then maybe after they fill the cups and whatever they get a flag and have to place it somewhere ?
Still waiting on the CBS press release , so frustrating .

I am having trouble getting usable shadow lines. Everything looks like mid-day. Both the DC and battlefield shots.
And the Frankenbite for Rollo saying they drive to DC makes me think they go to the battlefield first.
The shot of a team with backpacks leaving through the Rohrer Family Farm trelis is during mid-day.
And the shoe is mid-day.
And what about this:

Another little thing I noticed was Ma Paolo has on or near her lap the breifcase. So thismust mean they have to do some driving after completing the Roadblock. At one point of the preview one of the Paolos is pointing to a place a map of DC and he is one fat finger away from Dulles. But I don't think they are going there just yet. That could be him pointing at where they are currently (lost) on thier way to Monocacy.

I think the teams have to solve some kind of riddle to get to the Shoe House. Because the leg should start between 2 and 3 am and there is a few hours to pass before sunrise:
[attachment deleted by admin]
-
First things first:
On CBS Morning show this morning they had promo for TES announcing that the next family eliminated from TAR would be featured during the week. I guess this pretty much confirms and confuses that there will be a pit stop and elimination somewhere at the end of this week's program. Where? Washington? Monocacy? Think that it could be in Washington area since we have Phil leaving from Dulles Airport; if the final pitstop were in Monocacy he probably would be leaving from BWI which is nearer.
Second, I lhave pinpointed location of the girl with blond ponytail and white shirt and shorts. She is standing in front of the Statue of General Ulysiss Grant (just to the right of the picture) a part of Union Square in front of the Capitol Building (steps and paving stones match picture I have) and she is pointing across the Reflecting Pond to the location of the clue box which we have established in an earlier frame. From the angle and length of her shadow I would place her here in late morning around 10 or 11AM.
Third, the shot of the Linz Family looking at clue is in front of the Jefferson Memorial. Note Tidal Basin behind them.
Fourth, the shot of Bransen dad looks to be along Constitution Avenue just past the Washington Monument and he is headed west toward the Lincoln Monument and the shadows now seem to indicate it is around noontime (sun seems to be directly overhead).
-
That's great work GMan. That picture was really bugging me. I'm with you on the timing too. I think they go from shoe (via a tough time consuming riddle) to Washington to Monocacy.
Can you also detmine the location of this shot?
[attachment deleted by admin]
-
As far as I can determine this is just on the other side of the reflecting pool and the team is running toward the clue box at the top of the frame.
The teams seem to cover the Capitol area (reflecting pool and Grant Monument); along Constitution Avenue to Lincoln Monument; the Korean War Monument (we had spoiler last summer that they spotted one team coming from the Vietnam War monument; and we have the Linz in front of the Jefferson Monument. That just about covers all of the National Mall area.
The question still remains do they backtrack now to Monocacy, Maryland for the DETOUR and the PIT STOP? Leaving the teams to camp out once again?
The SUV's they are driving seem to give them one advantage - they don't have to carry their backpacks around from one spot to the other.
Hope we get clearer pix of the second part of the DETOUR at Monocacy before Tuesday night.
-
I think the teams have to solve some kind of riddle to get to the Shoe House. Because the leg should start between 2 and 3 am and there is a few hours to pass before sunrise:
I'm late coming into this thread..busy week. But it seems that everyone has forgotten that the teams each got a DEPARTING time when their tent was complete!! Wasn't it like 10AM- 11:30 AM??
I think they do the Shoe and Gettsburg (I'll explain why in the next reply) and then have a reststop again before heading to Washington. Perhaps there is a "time the place opens(a place we don't see) bunching" before or when they head into DC. That's why the SUN thing doesn't work out. It is two different days!!
Does this make sense to anyone?
-
I do think you have found the match, Pud; the picture in the nps Monocacy blurb look very similar (Note mowed field pattern and rail fences). Sorry, I'm no smarty pants, just damn lucky and unbelieving of CBS's clout to get these reenacters back for a second go at Gettysburg on July 9. And look at map - Monocacy is right on the route (Interstate 270) from York and Gettysburg to Washington, DC.I took another look at all the pictures from the Gettysburg site and I can not find anything nearly matching the field we see in our aerial shot. Pud is right there are a heck of a lot more reenacters at Gettysburg each year as it is probably the biggest Civil War Reenactment event of the year. Someone is just trying to mislead us; if we hear them say that they are at Gettysburg I will lose faith in CBS; that would be just too big of a stretch even for them.
HEY GUYS,
just because Monacacy is on "the schedule" doesn't mean that is where they are!!! Geeze, CBS wouldn't want to film where other people are attending the event.
July 9th is a Saturday. CBS probably just had to give a few thousand dollars to their program, and many of those die hards reenactors would show up.
And just a point about those fences and the quote. Yep, ithe quote could be dubbed in there, plus, there are tons of those white pickets fences all over PA

some better vidcaps ..nice Job Gman & Chateau .
Mrs. Kutz the camping was at Belmont Plateau, that was the first rest area , the final pitstop was at Rohrer Family Farm on Blue Rock Road in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. No matter they will have to leave in the order they arrived .

That's one of the Linz boys with the briefcase in front of the Jefferson Memorial not the Lincoln Memorial. The latter has many more steps in front and you can see in another shot that there is a low curving walk in front. So it looks like the teams are going all over the National Mall area so they may drive from one spot to the other.
-
Between watching the Redskins win, the Bosox win, and my man Dale Jarret win (how about them apples, Puddin?) I have been working on a time line.
If the teams arrived at the first pit stop between 3 and 5PM on the 8th, they would be leaving between 3 and 5 AM on the 9th This is assuming that the normal and traditional 12 hour mandatory rest period is in effect. It is about a 32 minute drive from the Pit Stop outside Lancaster to the Shoe House in Hallam, PA (that is assuming again that the teams can read a simple map) But we see the teams there in daylight so perhaps we have a typical bunch point waiting for the place to open at 6AM or 7AM. Once they get the clue it is no more than an hour's drive for the 53 miles to Frederick, MD and the Monocacy Battlefield. So they could arrive there by 8 or 9AM. Say it takes two hours to complete the Detour Task then they would be finished by 10 or 11AM. It is another 40 miles to the center of Washington DC but with traffic what it is on Interstate 270 and the infamous Beltway lets say it takes them an hour to make the trip. This would put them at the Capitol location between 11AM and Noon. This matches the shadows we have for the Washington Roadblock task.
I have gut feeling that the line "Drive yourselves to Washington DC" had been lifted and inserted in scene of teams leaving the Shoe House and is typical CBS misdikrection. It does not make sense to drive past Monocacy to Washington and then back to Monocacy. And the shadows seem to be mid morning rather than late afternoon.

To me that looks like a folder of some sort not a briefcase.
Just to muddle things up some more:
Look at the map - the direct road from York, PA to Frederick, MD passes right through Gettysburg. What if they are told to go to Gettysburg but actually are led on to Monocacy without telling the teams that they were actually in a different location? It is just a short jump down the road. Certainly the majority of people in the audience have heard of Gettysburg, but how many out there have ever heard of the Battle of Monocacy which happened a year later? (We here in the Washington area are well aware of the battle since it was the last time the South had a chance to invade Washington DC.) At least in Monocacy there were re-enacters already on hand July 9th. The field covered in the aerial shot does not seem to be in the Gettysburg Battlefield area at all.

Must be convenient that the Racers to have their own SUV's, they don't have to worry about lugging backpacks around ...must be nice .
-
From all indications they will, however, have to give up their own private SUV's in South Carolina or before. If they arrive at the Washinton Area pitstop in mid or late afternoon then they would leave early (like 2 or 3AM) to drive down the hated Interstate 95 to South Carolina. And Sunday morning before sunrise is the ONLY repeat ONLY time to drive that route. Probably would arrive in early morning (unless they all get lost again, but how can you get lost if you drive directly down south on I95??) Here they would have to give up their SUV's to take bus to NASA Space Camp in Alabama Where they pick up more SUV's (with built in mircro cameras!)

Well,it's a long shot but we have the Gaghans and the Weavers doing something along the lines of go fetch the flag.
And we have the Weavers doing the watery half of the detour.
So I think the Weavers lost out to the Gaghans in flag quest.

To defend Chauteu ..we don't see the Gaghans but three times , once leaving the farm , once in the car acting goofy then all we see is Carrissa Gaghan on the Battlefield running away from a soldier .

There really must be something non-traditional about the Pit Stop duration. This shot of the Gaghans show then going through the trellis towards the stone manor on the Rohrer Family Farm. The right face of the vertical 4x4 is illuminated by the morning sun.
We know that they finished Lag 1 at before 3 pm. This shot has has to bethem starting Leg 2 at 6 or 7 am. Actually this pit stop adjustment happened before in TAR7 when teams left the Makgadikgadi Pans. On that occasion (perhaps for safety) they did not leave until after sunrise. But they did preserve the amount of time that separated each team's arrival the day before.
[attachment deleted by admin]

It would make sense to extend the pit stop period "for the sake of the children." Who knows, there may even be some kind of child safety law that ensures there's enough rest time? Also, we know in the past that some pit stops lasted as long as 36 hours (didn't Gretchen say they had that long a pitstop in Africa?)
More TAR history: IN TAR5, Brandon and Nicole were saved by a NEL after going for the "shave your heads" FF (and refusing to do it) in India.

First post here. I have to tell you, you guys are the best and I sooo enjoy reading here.
My question....Would they do a possible NEL and FF in the same epi so soon?
Chateau {l{
Welcome mom24 , actually YES ! They have done a Fast Forward and non-elim in the same show in the past .. brb
TAR6 EP 8 was one .. Adam & Rebecca won the Fast Foward but it was a NEL .

Thanks for the welcome and the answer. :kuss:
I think it is a little early in the game to do it but we shall see tonight!
TAR7 Ray & Deana win the Fast Forward
Merdith & Gretchen saved by a NEL {|

Latest 'Amazing Race' targets Gettysburg, re-enactment
Tuesday, October 04, 2005
BY KIRA L. SCHLECHTER
Of The Patriot-News
After passing through Philadelphia, Mount Joy and Lancaster last week, the 10 families of four vying for the $1 million prize on CBS' hit reality show "The Amazing Race" visit Gettysburg on tonight's episode, finding themselves in the midst of a Civil War re-enactment.
The show, in its eighth season, is hosted by Phil Keoghan.
A call for comment about the show was placed to the Gettysburg Anniversary Committee, which presents the re-enactments, but it was not returned by press time.
One stop on the series' premiere episode was the Brubaker farm in Mount Joy; another was the Rohrer Family Farm in Lancaster.

maybe KIRA L. SCHLECHTER is assuming that they go to Gettysburg like we did or whatever ?? I stand by Monocacy as the Battlefield , the aerial shots match perfect Chateau !!
SEVERAL TEAMS MISINTERPRET A CLUE AND CONFUSE ONE CITY LANDMARK FOR ANOTHER,
Lincoln Memorial for the Jefferson Memorial ? or Korean War Monument for the Vietnam War monument? or last but not least Gettysburg for Monocacy , just kidding ^/^ .
On another Team, one Family member is plagued with fatigue, making a task nearly impossible to finish. Has to be Walder Bransen as shown in the promo's .
After ignoring a suggestion to refuel the car, tempers flare when one Team’s car runs dangerously low on gas and there is no gas station in sight.
My guess ,the team with the flaring tempers , The Paolo's ! (:;)

Ten teams visit Gettysburg on tonight's show? So sayeth the Patriot News. Most likely has both the site and the number of teams participating tonight wrong.
Announcement at noon on CBS that TES will feature the latest team to be ELIMINATED TONIGHT on tomorrow's show. So much for TBC and NEL.
I'm with you CdI, in one promo shown last night, the Aiello team is getting into their SUV at the Rohrer Farm and the same barn or some such outbuilding is seen through the car window. It is fully light out (they would be leaving 8th) and we hear one of the boys say"Time to hit the road." Any guesses on how long after the Godlewski Family did the Aiello Family arrive? So this is scene of them starting the day probably headed for the Shoe House in Hallam. Could the pit stop now be 15 hours? If the first team arrived around 3PM this would make the departure time around 6AM.
It would be very easy for a team to mistake the Lincoln Monument for the Jefferson Monument, the former is much better known than the latter. And this could be an easy mistake for any team who wonders if Pennsylvania is a state?
There is another scene (most likely in Washington) of Mark Schroeder seemingly looking for something in a column (square) lined building which is neither the Jefferson nor the Lincoln Monument. It is not a spot I can recognize so it may even be somewhere else. Very confusing and just as confusing as Mark looks.

Thanks to GMan’s observation where this was I can make a time of day estimate.
Also thanks to the nice xy coordinate system scribed into the concrete!
This Godlewski sister has a shadow making a 72 degree angle wrt the lines running North/South. That translates into a solar azimuth of 108 degrees. From this site (http://www.jgiesen.de/SME/) I found that that happened at 10:51 am (using a date of July 9th 2005, assumes next day start of Leg 2).
ETA: eekk! I goofed. I think I used a Puddin's water mark as a scrbeline. |( On reconsideration her shadow is more like 45 degrees wrt the lines. That means a solar azimuth of 135 degrees. That happened at 12:08 pm.

I have reviewed all the promo tapes and the vidcaps so well posted here and I cannot, repeat cannot find one scene of any one of the Rogers. Am I missing something? or are they so far under the radar that they are already wandering around up there in Canada.

So that means two teams eliminated ahead of rolling into Alabama.

Standings after 1 leg:
1. Godlewski
2. Gaghan
3. Weaver
4. Rogers
5. Schroeder
6. Paolo
7. Bransen
8. Aiello
9. Linz
x10. Black
You know, I was hoping that they'd leave the U.S., but with a Civil War reenactment coming up, I'm kinda thinking that it's not happening this week. I am curious as to how the Roadblocks will play out though. Not worried about the Aiello and Linz teams trailing behind, as there's lots of Race to go, and even good teams can have poor first legs - the key is surviving that first leg.
Before I give out my Philimination pick of the week, I should point out that the 'word' came about during one of the early races, and that CBS even markets a T-Shirt with the phrase. Twenty bucks... Cheap!!
Anyways, my Philimination pick is:
Paolo's

I still think that they will be getting down to Central America, which is technically still part of North America. On CBS.com the route map is being laid out on an outline that stretches from Canada down to Colombia, SA. If they were only going as far south as Texas, I think outline map would only include that much of NA.
I can still hope and we do have flash shots of Panama Little League team and colorful Macaw (Beliz) And this would mean at least two or three airline hops which should be fun with 6 people needing tickets for each team.

Boys and Girls, it is that time again:
WHAT WE KNOW AND THE LOT WE DON'T KNOW
The pit stop is probably another camp out at the Rohrer Farm near Lancaster, PA. The first teams, the four Godlewski sisters arrived first about 3:04PM. The last team, The Linz siblings (the last team to continue on, that is) arrived while it was still daylight but probably at least two hours after the first.
Speculation has it that the mandatory rest period this time is at least 15 hours since we see the Gaghans who arrived second leaving with backpacks through the trellis on the Rohrer Farm with the sun up although from the length of the shadows very soon after sunrise at 5:45AM. Later we have a shot of the Aiello Family getting into their SUV and we see the same barn or some othe outbuilding through the car window which we saw the day before when they arrived. The sun is now up and is shinning directly into Papa Aiello' s eyes as we hear one of the sons-in-law say "It's time to roll"
The first route clue seems to direct them to Hallam, PA and the Shoe House. Maybe the clue is vague or they get specific directions but in any case it is only a 20 mile ride to Hallam, PA. The clue here directs them to Frederick, Maryland. A drive of about 53 miles.We have the belief that this is the location of the Civil War Reenactment at the Monocacy National Battlefield. The evidence seems to point here and not to Gettysburg, PA: the site shown is much smaller, the terrain does not seem to match pictures we have of the battlefield at Gettysburg, and we know that on July 9 and 10 no reenactments were scheduled for Gettysburg (the big one took place the weekend before, July 1-3,) but there was a much smaller one scheduled for Monocacy which seems to fit the scenes we have of a very small force on both side. Now it is possible that the deep pockets of CBS could entice some of the reenactment unit to return to Gettysburg OR CBS could tell the teams they were in Gettysburg while in fact they were in Monocacy, (heck one team didn't even know if Pennsylvania was a state or not!)
At the civil war reenactment site (Gettysburg or Monocacy) is the location for the DETOUR task. We call it: CARRY or FETCH. In CARRY the teams must find and carry five (5) rather heavy wounded soldiers both Union and Rebel to an aide station which seems to be up a rather steep hill (note tents at the top of the aerial and the at least 8 white stretchers lined up to the left) Not a very difficult task but one that can be very tiring (and we do know that Papa Bransen is really in lousy shape and almost blows it for the girls) From the shadows it looks like it is early to mid morning here; perhaps between 8 and 10AM. The other task is FETCH

What I was trying to post before ..

Bransens, Aiellos, Linz and Godlewski families doing this task.The other
task is FETCH (we have little to go on here) which seems to deal with
fetching water for the troops in the field and then retrieving a
particular flag to bring back to the starting point. We have the Gaghans
and Weavers doing this one.So the tiitle of the Detour may even be SEARCH
and RESCUE. Meanwhile the Paolos, Schroeders, and Rogers are MIA.
The clue here tells them to proceed to Washington, DC where they will
find their next clue by the reflecting pool (Union Square) in front of
the statue of General U. S. Grant (which may be the only clue they have
since it fits in with the civil war theme). This takes place about
10:51AM. Frederick, MD is only 40 miles north of DC on a direct route via
Interstate 270, the Capital Beltway, and George Washington Parkway into
the mall area.
There may be another task for them first. Maybe to find the monument
dedicated to a President (the Third not the Sixteenth) Some teams may
head to the Lincoln Memorial instead of the Jefferson Memorial across the
Tidal Basin from Mr. Lincoln. Here they will find the ROADBLOCK task.
Call it "The Sky is Blue": one member of each team must take the black
briefcase and try to find another person somewhere on the mall with a
similar black briefcase and if this is the person who will take part in
the SWITCHEROO he will respond when hearing the code phrase: "The Sky is
Blue". We only have shots of one of the Linz clan and and Papa Bransen
(he survived the battle field) with the briefcases. From the looks of the
shadows it appears that this task is being done at least by these two
around 12:00 or 1:00PM.
When they exchange briefcases they will receive the clue to go to the pit
stop. Don't know where: it could be on the Mall but unlikely as this
would have been too open and public. Perhaps one of the many historical
estates in the area, such as Mount Vernon, or just about anywhere.
Wherever we now are positive that this will be another ELIMINATION LEG.
Its your guess as whom isto be philimated tonight. Good luck. Hopefully
we have this story at least half-way right.
Thanks,
Hugh.
My guess: the Aiellos.

RMAX Spoiler for tonights show in EP 3 title !!

Thanks Puddin.
But I wonder if the blurb above is correct? But with the time frame we have it could be that they go right down the Interstate from York to Washington, DC which would put them at the Union Square clue box at the 10 to 11 time frame we have. Then at the Jefferson Memorial at noon to 1:00PM and back to Monocacy via Interstate 270 for the Detour in mid afternoon. Strange but could be.Then camp out overnight (again) on the Monocacy field. Then it would make sense for them to leave 12 hours later (3-4AM) for 40 mile ride to Dulles (Washington) International Airport on Sunday morning.
Bye Bye Tony et al.

RMAX Spoiler for tonights show in EP 3 title !!
Well, my middle name is actually Walter, so call me "Wal-derr" but what was the spoiler for Ep 2 in Ep 3 title?
Wish I'd changed my MW pick to the Rogers being eliminated. I had them going in two other polls, just not in the MW game. Sigh...
-
The spoiler was that we had the promo for EP 3 thanks to banzai at 7:00 or so , the spoiler was that we knew what teams were safe ..the Paolos and Rodgers were almost invisable in the new promo ...I thought for sure the Paolo's would be eliminated but never spotted the Paolo's deep in the back of the bus .. it was too late to change my picks.. ah well its just a game and fun to guess right ot wrong :nods:
-
Actually the Paolos were saved by the Rogers. Rogers got to Middleburg, VA first, started the Battlefield challenge and then changed to the oil challenge after only carrying one poor wounded Rebel. So they put themselves behind by going over and starting all over again with the oil.
So maybe, just maybe, the spoiler leaked by the Blacks in their post-race interview is on the right track. The Blacks said that the bonded best with the Rogers and Aiellos. Probably at the sequestered losers villa since otherwise they would not have much time to bond over the one night camping out in the rain in Philadelphia. So does that mean that Tony and his three son-in-laws are next? CBS promo has the Aiellos spinning their wheels in the mud, but this may be typical CBS Misdirection.
-
Ah, the power of CBS and The Amazing Race. Hire a full complement of reenactors to put on a show for them in Middleburg just for TAR. But what really shows their power is the ability to always have convenient parking spaces for the nine SUV's whereever they happened to want to stop in Washington, DC. For anyone who has never been here on a Saturday afternoon at the height of the Tourist Season, this just is an almost impossiblity. Parking spaces are few and far between; and to see the parking lot at the Tidal Basin almost devoid of parked cars is just too much. Ah but you can notice a white sawhorse here and there, a police car conveniently parked here and there and special "no parking today" paper tags on some of the parking meters.
Moreover, they were able to keep their presence in the nation's capital completely hidden from the press. This is a real accomplishment in this town to be able to keep anything quiet and out of the press or off the airways. Just doesn't happen.

No Rogers arrived after the Paolo's and from the looks of it they were dead last. If you noticed there was no "Look there is the other team" from either the Paolo's or Rogers, so i think Rogers arrived adn everyone was already done with the detour. I honestly think had this been a race AROUND THE WORLD the Rogers would have done very good becuase most of it would have been cab rides.

Puddin
I just realized CBS changed the promo from " There Are No Pitstops " to " Every Second Counts "
???That's right! I just checked the storyline at the CBS website:
After finishing their task, Teams would be handed a regimental flag that they had to carry down a winding road to the Pit Stop for this leg of the race.
So was there a midcourse correction, or is it just a case of one CBS cubicle not talking to another?
