IMPORTANT!!

PLEASE only use Oval's team descriptions so we maintain consistency.

I especially do NOT want to see Blind... or Black women.. or African-American women because NONE of our teams fit those descriptions.

Oval's descripts ONLY please as found in the Timeline.

Thanks!

I'm not expecting a second leg in BC as in previous seasons, they just did 2 in Alberta.

Maybe Manitoba, it's due for a return visit. Churchill would be the best choice (the possibility of seeing polar bears!) but it's way up in the corner on Hudson Bay, meaning more charter flights.

[walkingpneumonia]

There is a VIA Train leaving Prince Rupert this morning (8am) to Prince George (arr 20:30). It continues on to Jasper the next day...

[Maanca]

Everyone please keep in mind that if teams take the first Digby Island flight today they will be transiting in Vancouver about 130 PM PST.

Please be alert for sightings!

That was 2 hours ago now. Not seeing anything yet.

Based on the new info,
this season has 5 FF, 3 MF and 2 MM
The M/? team is a MM team

So both MM teams were first boots? 


There are photos of asians FF with other teams from today. Is it means that they survived Leg 5 after all?

[classy]

did I miss the sightings of the ff Asian team from today, have only seen 3 teams in photos from today

Where? In the photos of teams walking around town? That's not them. That's F/F Pink Shirts.

Not many flight options out of Prince Rupert today - Vancouver at 11:25am. Unless its a chartered flight then they could be going anywhere.
VIA Rail has no trains leaving today.

They do have some shiny Chevrolet Camaros in town - maybe a scenic  2 hour drive to Terrace BC (YXT) which has a few more flight options - mostly to Vancouver. 
Or an 8 hour drive to Prince George? 

[Maanca]

Yeah, not sure what they'd be doing as far as getting out of there, Prince Rupert is really kinda at the end of the world. It's where the northern branch of the Trans-Canada Highway ends, and flights are indeed limited.

I believe those Camaros were returned to the dealer, plates removed. (read it on FB, But I don't remember where).
I wonder if Camaros are the grand prize car this year?

[Maanca]

STILL in Prince Rupert? This is quite the extended Pit Stop, there's no way they'd do a second leg there. Must be waiting on a specific flight.

There is a video

It is possible that part of the leg is still in Prince Rupert and they wait out a flight later so watch for teams.

[Youp]

The one thing I can't believe, its not Raining in Rupert, they had people move from South Africa due to a skin condition,  for the lack of Sun in Prince Rupert.
This is truly amazing they hit there on one of the few Sunny Days.  The 70's/80's Band Trooper wrote a Song, that was about Prince Rupert " We’re Here For A Good Time"

[Maanca]

I had a thought, too. Maybe the Fort McMurray fires could be playing havoc with flights, if they're crossing the prairies. The smoke has been quite far-reaching.

[WindsorSue]

Isn't there an 8:05 (PST) flight to Vancouver?

and a 6:00 PM

Jazz arr YVR 7:45 delayed 7:52 PM PST
AC arr 9:57 PM PST

[WindsorSue]

Is there an airport shuttle bus at that mall? That's the only reason I can see them waiting there.

[Youp]

The Shuttle Bus leaves Downtown @ 6pm, The Mall is Downtown, not sure exact location, but Mall would be a good guess.

There is a travel agency there, which seems to carry the Air Transat logo - which was recently connected to CTV promo contest.

Good Job WindsorSue!
It is a match.
They are out though

I know, but I was surprised to find it tonight on Twitter while I was looking for what was going on in Prince Rupert! And it's still good to confirm it is a M/M team. Ugh.

[Maanca]

Well one thing is certain, then. At least one female is finally going to win 

[Black Magic]

Lmao. I can't believe that the 2 M/M teams might be the first two boots.

[TARUSAFan]

Lmao. I can't believe that the 2 M/M teams might be the first two boots.

Based on one of the photos posted on the live sightings thread, all the F/F & M/F teams made the Vietnam 1 Leg. Which means all the M/M teams are gone in Legs 1 & 2! 

[Black Magic]

How many teams are supposed to be racing today? 5? 6?
