Showcasing local guides on TRAC event.

Caption: A GIF of  a handful of very active local guides on my TRAC 2023 event. Some others prefer not to appear on connect. Therefore this is only 11 of about 50 participants. This GIF was made by the special kind support of @Jayasimha78 and @justjake who advised me on this thank you colleagues. @SholaIB

Road Mappers Champion (RMC)

I will like to start this post by saying thank you to the local guides community for their loyal support to 3Thousand-roads-add-campaign-2023-TRAC on Google maps.I will continue by saying thank you to various fellow connect moderators that are participating just to support me on this. We also have some guiding stars 2022 on this so the event is well based,thank you.Lastly I’ll say thank you to the all the local guides who are participating. We want more active and even very active local guides to come participate. There is so much we can achieve together using our joint community effort. As a Community builder and aguiding star :star2: :star2: :star2: thats what am enjoying most in this. It’s unbelievable how far and how well we have done. Our 3 weeks report. Was so fast that I knew this was going to be great. As time went on,We added 3000 roads on the Google maps. in just about a month. Therefore,since we are signed up for 6 months what shall we do,relax??? No !!! We decided to continue on to add10k Roads. Therefore TRAC-Next-Move-and-Target-Add-10k-Roads .

Now we are half way through in less than 2 months. I hardly know what next when we achieve the 10k roads. It’s looking like we will achieve that 10k in 2 months!!! Special thanks to @LovePathak28 . a fellow local guide from India and a strong support on this idea. One very funny and great thing was that we had a healthy personal competition between both of us over adding roads. Although I wọn,yet I realise that he was very professional and good. As a co-host in helps with the data analysis and other aspect of this Campaign.

Hello @JustJake

If there is one person that needs to be on their TRAC it is you. We need someone to coil us down while we sweat to draw and add.

If jokes were roads on the maps Jake, you’ll have about half a million of them now :rofl: thank you for your interactions and help.

Yes !!! 6 months is a long time and we haven’t even done 2 months yet. See down the roads or somewhere on telegram. I like your photo :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: .

Happy guiding and mapping
