The Ranibennur and chitradurga stretch has pathces that surprise you if you are doing fair speed. Especially near Chitradurga you really need to slow down. So you got to be watchful. Also you got to watch the vehicles travelling on your side of the road & the vehicles that quiet easily trudge into your lane from any side suddenly.
If you are planning to avoid Bangalore & go past Bangalore to Hosur then after Tumkur near Neelamangala you could ask & get on the outer ring road - guess its before peenya industrial ... could not locate that when I traveled in mid-Feb '08.
