Welcome to the 7th leg of The Amazing Race!
The game clocks are reset and you have all been given $25.
Keep track of your own money because if you spend money
you don't have you will incur a 60 minute penalty.
Onward to the land down under. Your 6th destination is:
It's back on the airplane again. Good Luck and Race Safe!
Air Travel: Toyko to Sydney
Using Amazing Race's official travel sponsorship Travelocity,
You have to find the quickest arriving real-time flight from
the current race location to where you are going.
However, there are two twists.
1. An individual flight accumulates a 30 minute delay for each team on it.
Unless you are the only team on the plane then it arrives at the scheduled time.
For example, Travelocity says flight arrives at destination at 4:00 PM.
However 4 teams chose that exact flight so it will actually arrive at 6:00 PM.
2. Each layover gives a 50% chance of being delayed an extra 15 minutes.
Adds strategy to the game as the first arriving flight might not be the best option. Although it could be your golden ticket if everyone decide to avoid it.
Make sure you chose One-Way, not Round-Trip.
You are booking two adult tickets, you and your partner.
Flights don't take money out our team's bank account.
The airports must be in or near designated departure and arrival cities.
The game clock starts now and stops at the arrival time of the flight.
One team member must PM me with their chosen flight.
A screenshot is needed for verification purposes.
The Road Block will be posted later today.

Leg #7: Sydney, Australia
Check-In and Stop the Game Clock
The new cycling season is right around.
Australia is preparing for the annual Tour Down Under.
Six Australians have won this race since it was first held in 1999.
Find the 6 real-life winners winning the TDU event on PCM.Daily,
can be found in stories, Man-Game, EPIC, etc.
(It's not a guarantee that this is completely possible because
I've haven't checked it, so keep that in mind. Perhaps everyone
might have to take a penalty in order to stop the clock. )
Submit results by PM to me with the link to each victory.
For $150 each you can purchase a rider's victory.
Time penalties will occur for the following:
1. Each rider not found or incorrect. (+250 Minutes)
2. Not mentioning who will do the Detour
in same PM as your submission. (+30 Minutes)
Speed Bump: Cereal Killers
Bikex and Bjartne because you finished last and were saved you have to complete this Speed Bump before I will accept your Road Block.
Post on this thread a picture and link to the report of Australia's only
Grand Tour winner winning a stage in the Tour de France.
+30 Minutes for posting a Giro or Vuelta stage win.

SO the 6 guys could be anywhere on Daily? Does it have to be a PCM report?

@Matt: Yes, GC.

Sounds like a very interesting road-block, on of the ones I just do because I can.

No Route Info/Transportation for this leg.
Instead a Double U-Turn is in play to shake up the game.
This is a private Double U-Turn which means the other teams won't know
who U-Turned them and made them complete both Detours tomorrow.
Stop the Game Clock by 1 team member PM me saying what you plan to do.
A. Choose to U-Turn another team and which team.
B. Do nothing and just stop the Game Clock.
This is on a first come, first serve bases.
Only the first two valid teams to get nominated will get U-Turned.
You can not get U-Turned once you stop the game clock for your team.
Detour Choices will be sent out later today as well as, since a few people
asked for it, the locations/posts people used for the Road Block.

I do wonder how teams did so much better in the road block then us. Thought we actually did okay.
