Route update by K. Akshay Pai on day of Kali Puja/ Diwali, viz. 2020-11-14:
Bengaluru to Mangalore via Shirady as of today.
Bangalore to Hassan - beautiful road as usual
Hassan to Sakleshpur- most of major potholes (as seen on 7th November) are patched and and it's a pretty drivable road. There are diversions and they too are patchy.
Sakleshpur to Shirady- it's unbearably bad.. it's become mini Ladakh. Fatal potholes , lot of dust, big groves, convoy of tankers, KSRTC buses with Vin Diesel drivers and massive pebbles .Extremely unfit for driving but enjoyable for off-road lovers.1st and 2nd gear affair. Took me 2 hours to cover.
Shirady start to end - it's beautiful as always , no road repairs or issues.
Shirady end to BC road stretch - unforgiving patchy roads and fatal potholes, took me 3 hours to complete even with a touring superbike. Again mini ladakh experience and enjoyable for off-road lovers. 1st and 2nd gear affair.
BC road to Mangalore - really good highway.
