Personally I wouldn't want another southerly slog through France so a checkpoint somewhere a bit easterly like the Black Forest would be cool. Also having the first checkpoint close by keeps the racing interesting.
Geraadsbergen to Kitzbüheler Horn could be an nteresting parcours but longish first leg and might make the race a bit short?

I think the race will definitely start in Geraardsbergen again. They've got a pretty good relationship with the town. It's also one of the easiest places in the entire world to get to with the Eurostar from Britain and 4 of the worlds biggest airports pretty close by (Paris, Amsterdam, Frankfurt and London).
I'm fairly sure the race won't finish in Turkey next year even though I think everyone enjoyed Cannakale but I think a similar beach resorty type town.
The control cars drove back through Romania so I'm thinking Trans Alpina or the Transfagarsan or both. I remember Mike saying he wanted to include the latter.
A Black Sea finish would be cool and with much of it being close to Bucharest it would be convenient to get out of. It also satisfies the transcontinental element.

I also wouldn't say no to one of the nice unpaved passes
