Bangalore to Nandi Hills cycling March 16, 2014



Went to visit college friend -Prasanth and family as there was new entry to his family -Jishaan a.k.s Shagrath -Prasanth's new born son. Went to Prasanth's place Smondoville in Neo Town after Electronic city. Left his place after lunch on 15 March. 
Met Nivedita and Vidya at CMH Road, Indra Nagar in the evening to hire cycles from pro cycles for our cycling trip.


 
Cycling to Nandi hills from Bangalore.
16 March - started at 6AM from Ramamurthy Nagar reached Nandi Hills around 12 noon with breakfast break of about 20min off the highway-NH8. While detour took us around 4hr as we had to return the cycles prior to 8PM else we would had to pay more for over-night charges. It wasn't easy to pedal back as we left Nandi hills around 2:15 PM and reached Indra Nagar by 06:15 PM. 4hr of pedaling through the heat was tough.

Appeal to Highways Department

Hope PC constructions and Highways Department puts an end to the agony commuters  face at Thirumangalam and Anna Arch junctions by completing the flyover work rapidly at least in the year 2014.

There's been various deadlines given in 2013 and all have failed citing some reason or the other. Why does it take 3+year to complete a flyover work which is happening in ultra slow motion action?
