TAR 17 Speculation

--- Quote from: Neobie on June 06, 2010, 09:33:23 PM ---These clues strongly suggest that Sweden is the final destination country (even if Stockholm is not the final destination city), at least for Leg 4. What I hope to see, though, is that teams travel overland (or over-sea) for Leg 5, ending up in Norway, or better yet, Denmark. Getting from these two countries to St Petersburg on 5 Jun does require a connection in Stockholm. (Riga and Helsinki, on the other hand, do not.) The timeline suggests that Legs 4 and 5 might not be too geographically close to one another...

I am speculating about leg 5 from Kiruna to St. Petersburg. There was an unusual amount of time to do this.
Holiday excursion trains run from St. Petersburg, the capital of Russia’s north, through picturesque Karelia, and on to the Kola Peninsula, lapped by the waters of the Barents Sea, so clearly the reverse is possible. Of course teams could fly directly from Murmansk to St. Petersburg ( 2 hour flights at 515am and 9am), but that would not be the romantic way to do it.
Is there a way to bridge the 554km from Kiruna to Murmansk to allow a unique travel experience in Lapland? Unfortunately, I haven't found one. There are no direct fights, although a charter flight could easily do it since both places have major airports.

That would be great to see! Unfortunately, we already know they fly via Stockholm:
EVIDENCE: Teams spotted at ARN (Stockholm) flying to St. Petersburg 6/5 (SK 732 DEP 10:14am, ARR 1:33pm)
We also have a source who was on the plane with several of the teams....

What shocks me is that before the race, no one really put that much faith into the sighting, and now we have a lot of people believing [Nick & Vicki] make it far. I still believe they are the next to go. Since this episode is now over, it doesn't do any harm to point out that as of now, the projected results look like this:
11. Ron & Tony
10. Andie & Jenna
9. Nick & Vicki
8. Connor & Jonathan or Katie & Rachel
7. Katie & Rachel or Connor & Jonathan
6. Gary & Mallory
5. Michael & Kevin
4. Chad & Stephanie
Final 3 (In No Order)
Brook & Claire, Jill & Thomas, Nat & Kat

Really? I thought the men's teams all flame out before F6. And I think Connor & Jonathan might be the team that leaves in eighth place. The F7 (I think) were seen going to St. Petersburg. Michael & Kevin were the only men's team with the other teams at the time.
