Yeah, I was just about to post this.

Not an exciting title, and I have a couple of guesses of who it may be, but that will be getting  :ot: .

Argentina should be great, though! :jumpy:

from Urban Dictionary: (and this southern girl has never heard this in her life :lol: )

Quote
1.  scalded dog 
One who runs away like a coward. A JRism.
 
2.  scalded dog     
The term "scalded dog" originated when people used to cook, can, and preserve food outside. A dog could come into contact with spilled hot water or foodstuff and run from the pain. Dogs will run away from pain from bees or hot scalding water long after the pain causing entity is gone.
A dog that has been burned is a scalded dog and to run like a scalded dog is to run wildly from a pain causing experience.
The soldier ran like a scalded dog from the enemy forces.
The children ran like scalded dogs from the black bear.
The people ran like scalded dogs from the lava flow.
The escaped criminals ran like scalded dogs from the police.

I'm betting it will be said by Jet or Cord.  I have no idea under what conditions, though.

Yeah, they probably said it, We'll see

This seems to be a good leg

Maybe off topic but how many times have they visited Argentina?

2 legs in TAR 5, 2 legs in TAR 7, 1 leg in TAR 11.
If they didn't reuse the same city, I wouldn't really have a problem with it, considering how big the country is. But they're returning to San Carlos de Bariloche after 11 editions.

Evan Weinstein,

I did not notice any references to the the CondorMan tandem paraglide into Lake Nahuel Niguel mentioned. I think it lifts up for the top of the chairlift in VILLA LA ANGOSTURA on Cerro Bayo before splashing in Lake Huapi Nahuel.

I think:
1. Roadblock is ahead of the Detour.
2. The Detour involves a shovel? Looking for buried things?
3. Gnome task! :)

Found only one address for Western Union - the post office? Has got to be the bus station, huh?

That's a winner.  :tup: The flash picture from the Turbus site is tiny, but you can see the matching features.

In the background is Cerro Leones (photo source). If you're a train buff, you might notice the "curva del huevo" (almost a loop) that the train travels right after the old bridge (video here).

Just wondering, any chance of a chocolate Switchback from TAR5, or is there not time to fit that in this leg? :duno:

And from Slowhatch's link, the Tur Bus terminal is open at 9am from Mondays to Saturdays. Considering we only see the top tier of teams and that Jody/Shannon were eliminated at 3.50pm, I suppose we have a slightly extended Pit Stop, say 20h?

I've a feeling (and I do hope) that the Switchback is a one-off thing!

So this is where Jebber shows up? The teams take a bus from PV to Osorno, where they transfer to Jebber's bus and then get dropped off somewhere short of Bariloche to pick up their rentals.

Oh, wow. This could be the worst injury in Race history. Have a feeling that whoever it happens to won't make it past this leg.

Could it be Jeff or Jordan?

Ya think? The couple can’t give discuss specifics, though Lloyd recalls having some concerns about the show’s physical demands. “I don’t like to work out. Everybody knows that. If I work out one day, I want to see results and so yeah I was worried,” she says. “Though I was more so worried about having to eat a bug or something. I would rather Jeff eat a bug than me.” When asked if the two ever got hurt, Schroeder would only say, “We are in perfect health right now.”
