TAR 18 Speculation and Discussion *contains Spoilers*
Plaidmoon:
I did some searching on the moped task in Liechtenstein and found that the Liechtenstein Tourism Office has a web page about using mopeds and bikes to explore Liechtenstein at http://www.tourismus.li/en/navpage-SummerLI-BikeLI-342002.html. It suggests that the mopeds may actually be bikes with electric battery powered motors to assist on hills. The rental plan appears well organized. They have about a dozen stations around the country where you can get fresh batteries if the ones you are using are getting low. The page also has a slide show at the bottom where you can get a better look at the bikes and the pretty countryside of Liechtenstein. I'd try and upload one, but it's a flash based page, so I can't grab them. Actually, I can't even get them to enlarge so I can look closer at them.
Liechtenstein looks to be about 30 km from north to south (about 20 miles), so it sounds like they could travel north to south (or south to north) and measure the country in about 60 to 90 minutes. If they go east to west, the country is only about 7 or 8 km wide (about 5 miles), so that would take 15 or 20 minutes. Of course, they will really be measuring the length of the road, not the size of the country unless the road is perfectly straight.

With a starting line task, I'm leaning towards a 2-hour premiere, or else it could be seriously rushed.

Anyone else notice that the official website says it will air at 10 PM instead of the usual 8 PM? Anyone know why?

Maybe its in Central Time and it will air at 10pm due to a televised event in the time zone areas at selected markets.
