It's All In the Details - Teams start a Megaleg in Bologna, Italy, where they must cart an 88-pound wheel of parmigiano cheese and build a Ducati Panigale V4 motorcycle.
Enjoy the show!

Luis and Michelle don’t know how to reverse with a stick shift. She has to get out and push while a bus honks at them.  |

Father daughter learning the many parts of the body in choosing Head of the Class. Omg
If they were in medical profession this would be easier. This is going to be tough.

I don't know why people don't learn to drive a stick before going on the race. They always drive stick at some point. When we were in Croatia, everyone drove a stick. It was hard to find a car without one.

I don’t know, wheeling an 88-pound wheel of parmigiano cheese and building a motorcycle will be challenging for so many of them.
Finally Lum and Glenda realize they have to drive themselves to a different location for the cheese.
Luis and Michelle doing well. Delivered the cheese and Now off…….I think Luis is the one who is a fireman and can build stuff well, right?

I would switch tasks if I was waiting for class to be finished. I would switch if I was in class. I am finding it hard to understand the instructor.
Look it's my restaurant...Diana...

Father/ daughter, and newlyweds fail. Cheerleaders succeed! She took anatomy in college and they made. Motivational speakers are lost……really lost.  I’m sorry that’s not very nice. But, of all the couples competing right now, I would like to see them come in last. So my fingers are crossed. |

It was hard to find a car without one. Exactly! claire and Derek took a prep course for The Amazing Race, where they learned to drive a stick shift……and even were blindfolded and driven far away, dropped off and told to find their way back. I wonder if Big Brother arranged that for them? |

Motivational team and Lum /Glenda doing body parts still. I am sorry they caught up to Lum/Glen Luis tightly righty, lousy lefty. valuable info my whole life. He basically has it, but doesn’t know you have to squeeze the clutch to get the wheel to spin. 8 of 10 teams are building Ducati now. |

Post by Mikesgirl on Oct 6, 2022 2:46:17 GMT
Oh both teams finish body parts now.
Military bros still don’t have it right. Twins Molly or Emily whichever one is the mom, says building with legos helped her. Her rear wheel spins beautifully because she paid close attention to the details. Love the twins!

A mega leg. I guessed it would be TBC. I drooled over the parmesan cheese, hubby drooled over the bikes. The cheese roadblock seemed easier than the body parts. I like most of them, but the girl with the pink hair, sending vibes to her henpecked husband, I'd like to boink her on the head for the rest of the race.. AR101. Learn to drive a shift, and read the clue! |

Stick shift bites half the teams once again. I'd be very happy if Ms. Motivational Speaker comes in last next week. |

Luis and Michelle don’t know how to reverse with a stick shift. She has to get out and push while a bus honks at them. This is something else I don't understand with contestants on TAR. You can find the info on the internet.
Learning How to Drive a Stick Shift in 8 Steps- 1. Press the clutch to the floor ...
- 2. Turn the Key to Start the Car ...
- 3. Press the Brake Pedal ...
- 4. Press the Clutch and Position the Gear Shifter ...
- 5. Remove your Right Foot from the Brake ...
- 6. Start Letting Pressure Off the Clutch, while Gently Pressing the Gas Pedal ...
- 7. Switch to Second Gear and So On ...
- 8. Using Reverse

OMG what are The Sacred Rules of The Amazing Race?
1. READ THE CLUE!
2. Learn to drive a stickshift.
3. Know how to READ A MAP.
Read the Clue is fundamental, enough said.
Getting into and out of first shift is the hardest part of driving a stickshift and I have stalled out in the middle of intersections, and that was not fun. Driving in town, in first gear with lots of starts and stops is not fun.
GPS results in many folks not knowing how to read a map. It is sad.
Most annoying people this leg: Rainbow Brite and Sharik.
I have a feeling Rainbow Brite does meditation and mantras because she would explode otherwise. She is the navigator and does not know how to read a map?
Sharik is a spoiled baby. She is a Masters Student and can't pay attention to an 8 minute lecture about anatomy? Next previews show her having a temper tantrum and wanting to go home. WA WA WA.
Most Effort Award should be given to Claire. She tries and she is getting in her detours, so if they stay in the race Derek will be doing them at the end of the race. Not a bad strategy.

I personally would do the Head of the Class because I know anatomy and if not on the first try I should be able to do it on the second.
Listening to Sharik during this task was painful.
