McKinlay Races
Afternoon All
If anyone is traveling through Central QLD around mid June, the Mc Kinlay Picnic Races are being run on June 21. We were there last year and had a great time, unfortunately can't make it this year. McKinlay is a very small town on the Lansborough Hwy about half way between Winton and Cloncurry The towns claim to fame is the Walkabout Pub which was used in the filming of Crocodile Dundee, it still looks the same and has a lot of memorabilia from the movie. The race organizers are offering free camping during the week of the races including flush toilets, hot showers and water to top up your tanks.
If your in the area at the time it's a great way to spend a couple of days.

Re: McKinlay Races
Re my earlier post, if you need to know where the race track is just call into the pub and they will give you the directions.

Re: McKinlay Races
Believe I read recently that the Walkabout Pub was under (impressive) new management.
