One problem there, could be that people's mapping app's aren't up to date? eg I use OSMand, which only updates ~monthly, & I may then only download a new copy of the updated map 2 - 3 times a year, so those, now closed, tracks could well still be shown as open & valid. Mind you, having said that, they are then probably riding around a sign saying Track Closed, & there's not much we can do about that! Maybe they need more "Ignore Your GPS" signs! :-) https://www.google.com.au/maps/@-27.9748643,153.164579,3a,15y,328.13h,87.25t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sjUXRGta4I6LJZu9rtBDXvQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en Thanks Graeme
