Early guess for the bridge where L/K are opening the clue in the AOL preview -- this one in Lyon near the Hotel Dieu...

The cemetery is across the road away from the waterfront (see red arrow below), and I don't see a match for the hills/mountains behind Phil or a break in the trees along the river at Hyde Park for the finish line area. There's also a major road right along the riverbank (yellow arrow) -- I don't see that in the promo clips, nor would they want to set up the finish along a roadway.
--- End quote ---
Don't be so fast to dismiss the promo clips & GE image of Hyde Park. The banks of the Hudson River near Hyde Park are quite steep. According to GE, the roadway by the river is at an elevation of 10-30ft, while the grassy open area atop the cliff is at 200ft. The roadway might not be seen at all. The finish line may actually be at the Vanderbilt Mansion National Park (in Hyde Park, NY).
ETA: Looks like the riverside "road" is actually "train tracks".

Maybe its not a graveyard graveyard but a family graveyard?
woden:
That's possible, Puddin -- can anyone pluck out a graveyard near the river on GE?
Also, FWIW, the name of the bridge above is Pont Wilson in Lyon -- not sure it's a match but it looks pretty close to the one with L/K in the AOL promo. Still looking for the right view...
