looks like I'll be rooting for Gary and Mallory. I love Mallory's upbeat and positive attitude!

When they highlighted Ron asking Christina if she had the fanny pack I knew there would have to be a reason for it. I figured they would edit that out otherwise. This leg was a great one!

That ain't spunk; it's barely contained mania. I want to lock Mallory and Christina's arse-munch of a dad together in one of those little cars and see which one comes out alive after a long drive.

Seriously, rooting for Mallory? Love her 'spunk'? That girl is one of the most annoying things in my life right now, and it's only for a portion of 45 minutes, once a week. She reminds me of the sister Vince Vaughn was banging in 'The Wedding Crashers', but not hot.

She was hilarious in the mud!

Who is Christina engaged to again? I missed that part.

Azaria, from the same season.

Yes, there is precedent. I remember it was a Roadblock that involved building or repairing a bike? The location was in Asia (maybe Thailand?). And he hid the tools or parts or something for some of the other racers bikes. And they received a penalty for doing that. This was probably around Amazing Race 7 or 8 or so.

Cool, thanks I kinda remember him.

Yeah, I remember that. He didn't hide it so much as to mix it in with other things to make it harder to find.

Loved Phil pulling rank and penalizing the Globetrotters, but I am pretty sure that it was via voiceover, so it likely occurred after talking to producers (including the awesomely named Bertram Van Munster).
