Dennis & Andrew won the Fast Forward and were driven by limousine directly to the Pit Stop.

Choice B: Bike
Teams must ride a tandem bicycle along a marked 6-mile (9.7 km) course through Cambridge to receive the next clue.
Aaron & Arianne and Flo & Zach chose this task.
After either Detour, teams retrieved the next clue from under Magdalene Bridge.Teams must travel to Parker's Piece to take one of three charter buses to Aberdeen, Scotland and find the clue at Stonehaven in the Scottish Highlands. The buses leave at 7:30 pm, 10:00 pm, and 1:30 am the following day.
"For someone who is feeling a bit gamey."
One team member had to compete in three traditional Scottish games. First was the Caber toss, in which the player must throw a caber, make it topple, and have it land within designated lines. Second was the hammer throw, in which the player had to throw a hammer so that it landed inside a box marked on the ground. Last was the shot put, requiring the player to overhand toss a heavy rock forward to the finish line. Once all three are completed, teams may receive their next clue.
The Roadblock performers per team are underlined:
Teams must walk by foot to Dunnottar Castle and find the chapel to check in.
