TAR 21 had visual evidence of New York, but not the finish mat.....which caught people by surprise.
Unlike TAR 21, this is not on a sunny weekend day, and I hear the weather is not conducive to being outside. (Showers with a 60 percent chance of those having heavy rain and t-storms, per the National Weather Service.) So if teams are having to use taxis or mass transit, they may not be as visible between tasks and route markers.
