After exiting NICE expressway, where is the nearest access to the service road towards Agarwal Bhawan ?

The NICE expressway exit will connect vehicles to the service road of NH4.

We don't need to enter the toll road of NH4. For vehicles coming from Peenya side (not using NICE), people can stick to the service road, get onto the NICE corridor from NH4 and take a U-turn before the toll booths start. This is where the rest of the pack will be standing.

Here's a pictorial version of what I'm suggesting:

People coming from the city (Peenya side) can just get into NICE and catch up with the others before the toll booths start. Once everyone is in, we can leave together, exit onto NH4 service road and hit Agarwal's for breakfast.

Guys, till what time will you guys be there at the grasslands?

I am thinking of joining but 6:45am is way too early at the meeting point on a Sunday. Saturday night is pretty much the only night I can catch up on sleep.

I am thinking of joining directly at grasslands by 9am and then if anyone is interested brunch thereafter.

Any one of you trying the Nelamanagala-Doddaballur road and branching off next to railway crossing towards the Hessaragatta ? Or thats the default route for all ?

Because if you are not trying it, take that option. Its fun driving through country side.

nileshch · 27th July 2013, 10:17

Something that I was hoping to complete today has been pushed to tomorrow.

So I might be absent for tomorrows meet, unless some miracle happens and I am able to come at the last minute!

I've been waiting all this while for this trip to the Hesarghatta grasslands. Now that everyone is going, I cant go!

Enjoy the meet and do some killer photography!!

Hello fellow t-bhpians. I am a newbie and from Mysore. I usually prefer keeping my car back home and let parents use it that get it to Bangalore and get frustrated driving on ORR traffic. I would love to join these meets and perhaps would want a pick up or drop. Anybody staying near koramangala (near forum)?

But if I get a heads up a week before, perhaps I might get my car too. (I know it's a dumb thing since usually these are 'quickies')

Looking forward to meet all of you. Happy weekend. Enjoy the ride.

Parents are here so no Mysore trip this weekend. Even I'm new to this gang

I know the biker boys but none of the car guys.

BulZire · 27th July 2013, 12:09

But will join at the last minute if there is any chance.
