Gents.... I'm wanting to build up a bit of a Database of Iconic Tracks &
Places throughout Australia that I can use to plan for future trips & eventually retirement time.... I'm also searching for gps tracklogs of these tracks to help in the planning..... Which I've managed to find a few, just got to name them.....
I know there will many differing personal opinions of what is a Iconic Track/Place, but I'm open to suggestions as it will all go into my database for the near future & retirement touring.....
If we could list the track by Name and State located in that would also be helpful.....
