Bangalore to Mysore solo ride – trip update (2 May)

Did this ride on RE Classic 500.

Started around 5:30 AM and took the Kanakapura route. Roads were really good, traffic was low, and the views with coconut trees and small hills were amazing. Saw a few other bikers on the way.

Stopped at Vasu Hotel in Kanakapura for tea and dosa (₹60, pretty good).

Reached Mysore around 10 AM. Very hot, crowded, and lots of traffic.

Visited Mysore Palace (too crowded), then Mysore Church which was peaceful. Skipped Sapa Cafe due to rush and went to Gufha instead. Good food and calm vibe.

Later went to Chamundi Hills and left around 6:30 PM. Return ride was tough. After 7:30 PM it was very dark and high beams from opposite vehicles made it hard to see. Not recommended without good lights. Reached home around 11 PM.

Overall: Loved the ride, not the crowd. Ride > destination.

Planning a solo ride this Saturday (2 May) from Kalyan Nagar to Mysore on Classic 500.

It’s just a one-day plan for now, but I’m open to staying back if it feels worth it.

Wanted to ask:

Which route do you usually take? Any scenic or chill stretches?

What are some must-visit spots in/around Mysore that can be covered in a day?

Any good places for photos/videos (especially where I can park the bike and shoot peacefully)?

Hidden spots or less crowded places that are nice for solo travellers?

Good food stops on the way?

Also, if anyone has done this ride recently, anything I should watch out for?

***Update : I'm riding solo as I find it difficult to communicate with people during ride without intercom or any communication device.

Also 5-6 people who dmed me, they can go with each other if things works out.

Just reply here who wants to go on ride Tommorow.
