I've written an iPhone/iPad app for bike tour tracking called TrackMyTour. The app isn't a real-time tracker and updates are only made when you manually add a point. While this isn't exactly what you're looking for, the approach is easy on battery consumption and also allows you to annotate the points with text and a photo.
Have a look at a few sample maps.
Have a great tour!
