    The distance from Malleswaram to Sarjapur road-ORR junction via the city route is exactly 21kms.
    The same increases to 31kms when the hebbal-ORR route is taken. So, taking the city route is gonna be much nearer and equally fast, if not faster in order to reach the silk-board junction

    Since Cauvery theatre petrol bunk would be on the other side of the road, I think members coming from RT Nagar, Sanjaynagar, Sadashivnagar etc. can meet up at the bus stop immediately after Cauvery Theatre (when going towards Windsor Manor/ Le Meridien/ Karnataka Golf Course).. Its just before the BDA office flyover.. Its called Palace Gutahalli bus stop..
    The road is a 3-laner there, & so we can get off our bikes too, as there will hardly be any vehicular movement..
    IMO, we should meet up at 4.45am & leave latest by sharp 5.00am (i.e keeping 15 mins buffer), as we have to reach Silk Board Junction at 5.30am..

    Pls chip in, if anyone has a better suggestion..
    If the bus-stop you're considering is the one just before the magic-box section leading to the windsor manor bridge, then IMO its a good spot. Traffic isn't gonna be an issue that early in the morning and like you've rightly pointed out, there is sufficient space for the bikes.
    This spot would be easily accessible to the RT Nagar/Ganganagar riders as well as people from Malleswaram/Rajajinagar.
    I'm normally not a praying man, but if you're up there, please save me Superman.

      Yes! You got me spot-on there..

      If its still unclear to some, its the bus stop just before taking the left turn to Vasanthnagar/ Mount Carmel College..

      The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

        I don't know about Sarjarpur Road-ORR junction, but AFAIK, it is not necessary to go there, I mean Silk Board is straight from Hosur Road and it's around 15.xx kms from Malleshwaram.

        A question though, why are you giving the distance to Sarjarpur road - ORR junction from Malleshwaram? Are you planning to take the ORR? That'll be hella long!

          Yes. the Palace Guttahalli Bus Stop is just AFTER the Cauvery Petrol Bunk on the right and just BEFORE the left turn to Vasanthnagar/Mount Carmel College/BLR Palace South Gate.


          I think the shortest/quickest route would be Windsor Manor - Rajbhavan Road - MG Road - Brigade Road - Hosur Road - Madivala - Hosur Road Flyover.

            from:Chowdaiah Rd/NH 7/Ramana Maharshi Rd to:Chowdaiah Rd/NH 7/Sankey's Rd to:Unknown road to:Hosur Rd/Hosur Main Rd/NH 7 - Google Maps

            Prajwal
            How about Windsor Manor - Chalukya Hotel - KR Circle - KH Road (Double Road) - Dairy Circle - Banerghatta Road - BTM Layout - Silk Board ?
            I think this would be quicker..
            I don't know how to check the distance of this route in google maps..
            Maybe someone can help!

              I am coming from Marthahalli. We can meet at the spot right where the service road joins the ORR (opp Innovative). I think there is an ATM there OR if there is any other better place to meet do suggest.

                  Sure even Devilish has agreed to join up. I actually stay at bellandur, thats further down right after the ECOSPACE tech park. So the bellandur junction would be perfect. what say ?

                                Sure! So long as the pillion is wearing minimum safety gear (helmet, jacket, shoes)..
