      The speed limit for 2 wheelers is 60kmph. There is a signboard on the left side of the road which mentions it. But there are only 1 or 2 such signboards.

      Were these cops standing near the CCD outlet just after the bridge? There is another bunch of cops a couple of signals ahead where unsuspecting vehicles are stopped. Gotta be careful mate, especially in the day.

        • My photographer friend wants to shoot a couple of frames of my Ninja on sunday. Will get done by 8am.

          Can join you guys wherever you are post 8am if that's ok.

          A lil birdie said that there might be a surprise entry from a big brother for the Sunday ride.

              There are plenty of signboards. There are plenty with speed markings for all the 3 lanes. However the problem is that the bike image is very small and it is below "60" so very easy to miss out.
              And apart from 60 you need to be in second lane only of on 2 wheeler. Even if you are in third lane and riding at 60 they would ask you to pull you over for not following lane discipline.!

              • I guess the lane discipline thingy, has been void now as it was causing a lot of confusion. If u have travelled through the stretch recently, u can see that,the speed markers for each lane have been erased.

                  well i'm not sure if it has been removed or not coz few months back my friends were pulled over for speed and lane and they were told specifically about the lane as well.

                            we will reach Nandi hill about 5.45 - 6.00 am n come back Bangalore about 8-8.30 am.
                            2. Skandagiri for trekking
                            time : not sure becoz this is my first time, my idea : 1.00-1.30 am 30/5
                            meet point : Esteem mall near Hebbal
                            we will reach Skandagiri hill about 3.00-3.30 n take time for trekking about 2 h ( 8-15 km by foot ) come back bangalore in the lunch
                            3. Krishanagiri dam
                            time : 5.30-6.00 am 30/5 n come back Bangalore in the lunch
                            meet point : SilkBroad if u guys agree will this idea, i will post exact point we will meet.
                            we will have breakfast on NH 7 ( to Hosur )
