Revision as of 01:02, 16 February 2018
Kym Perfetto and Alli Forsythe are a team of Urban Bike Racers on The Amazing Race 25.
They were the most consistent team, only falling from the top three twice, and proved to be capable at the physical and mental tasks. The Urban Bike Racers also wanted to have a good time on their trip around the world, the most notable instance being when they explored the streets of Oxford instead of waiting at the train station. Their snarky natures and sense of humour made them fan favourites to win it all, and they seemingly secured a position in the Final Three, along with Misti & Jim and Adam & Bethany.
They decided to try for the Surfing Fast Forward in Leg 9, only to struggle and allow Adam and Bethany to catch up and claim it. Kym and Alli could not recover the time lost, and were eliminated in 5th Place.
