Yes we can meet right after the elevated toll way. Once we come out of elevated tollway, there is a traffic signal. From the signal enter the service road and we can wait there for others to join. The roads from Attibele toll to Hosur was in very bad shape. I will confirm the road conditions this weekend.

So if we start early we can escape the mad traffic due to horrible roads/diversions. If we can be there in the marked location as attached in the map, we can start from there as a group. MeetPointBlore.jpg

rekharam, that's an ideal place.

And I don't think anybody will get confused. And the road near the check post (Ashok Leyland) is in a bad shape, but its only for few meters.

Good Work Ram. Also, everyone to notice the statement in Bold above. It's on Service Road. Remember last time, we all were on the Main Road and was not able to wait there due to traffic and bus stand.

After 1st few arrivals, it will be even easier to trace the spot as a number of cars will be clubbed in to a specific point. :)

Enjoy~!
The best way is to turn on every car's flashers which is participating for the meet, we can surely notice them, since Bangalore Guys are meeting at 5:30 am, it's better to meet in the main road like the last time itself so as to identify the cars and avoid going further, there's will less traffic, else meet directly at Anantha Bhavan itself like RekhaRam suggested.

Also the last time when i visited Yelagiri, i did not find much of good hotels there (specifically veg) so veggies, do watch out for that and plan accordingly.

I'm so hating my office for missing this meet.

Roads around Hosur are bit disturbed these days. I had a hard time crossing that at around 7am. Lots of diversions, trucks/buses jammed, long queues in 3-4 continuous tolls. Probably that's the reason we are keeping it early.

PS: Guys, remember to carry enough cash. We have some 3-4 toll booths to cross. (For people who haven't been through this way).

Enjoy~!

The earlier we start, lesser the chaos before crossing Hosur. Road widening and flyover construction happening there. And RTO is right next to these constructions which causes a huge pile up of other state trucks parked right on the road. So it takes longer time if we start late.

May be we can meet up in the designated spot around 6 AM. But if we say 6 AM, everyone will able to start only around 6:30 and will/may be stuck in Hosur chaos.

Cheers,
R!

Hi Guys

You need not worry much about the traffic blocks on Hosur road. Until 8 am I never came across any heavy traffic on this stretch. Every month almost once or twice I am travelling on this way to Kerala and Chennai. And Guys, if you are not planning to stay back at Yelagiri, take the two way toll valid until 12 midnight.
