Pickup
The Urbania picks up at 6:30 from a home, a hotel or the station in Mysuru, and goes round the city on the outer ring road, about 41.5 km long, straight to the expressway. Elders get in easily through the wide door. The temple is about 195 km away, around four hours with halts. Carry flowers or offerings in a bag at the back. Mandya, 45 km out, is the first tea stop.

Tea
Mandya, 45 km from Mysore, is a ten minute tea halt. Ask at the stall for a glass of cane juice; it is pressed in front of you. Kikkeri temple lies about 14 km away and the Thirumala Sagar lake about 6 km away, but this trip is long, so keep moving. Mandya town sits at about 678 m, and October is its wettest month. The next stop, Maddur, is 20 km on.

Breakfast
Maddur, 65 km out, is where the group eats breakfast. Maddur vada is the snack to try, flat and crisp, made with rice flour, semolina and onion. Twenty minutes is enough for elders to eat and rest. The town is a tender coconut hub, and the coconuts are a safe drink for the long day. The Urbania reaches the stalls through the expressway exit. About 130 km remain to the temple.

Tea
Ramanagara, about 95 km out, is a short tea halt. The rocky hills here are called the Sholay hills, after the 1975 film. The town became a district headquarters in 2007. For elders, ten minutes for tea and the restroom is about right before the longer stretch round the city. From here the Urbania drives about 60 km to Nelamangala on the Tumkur highway, skirting the city so elders are spared the stop and start of central traffic.

Drive through
Nelamangala, about 155 km from Mysore, is the junction of NH48 and NH75, the Hassan road. The Urbania passes the toll plaza near the split and keeps going north. On long weekend Friday nights the queue at this plaza has run for hundreds of metres, so we avoid those evenings. Elders can stay seated; no halt is planned here. Nelamangala is a taluk town in the rural district around the city. Doddaballapur is about 25 km ahead.

Tea break
Doddaballapur, about 180 km out, is the last town before the temple, about 15 km on. Silk sarees are woven here on power looms, and a quick look at a shop can fit on the return. Ten minutes for coffee and the restroom suits elders before darshan. The town has a railway station on the line to Guntakal. If elders would rather not do the round trip in a day, hotels here make a comfortable night stop.

Temple drop
The Urbania stops at the temple parking, close to the entrance, which keeps the walk short for elders. The shrine has Karthikeya and Narasimha together, and devotees also come for prayers related to Kethu. The temple serves prasada, and simple meals are available nearby. Avoid Shashti days and festivals if elders are with you; the crowds are heavy. About an hour covers darshan, and the van waits in the parking.

Yes. Rain peaks in September around the city, and October evenings often bring heavy showers. The expressway drains well, but traffic on the roads round the city crawls in evening rain. In those months we start early and leave the temple by early afternoon, so the Urbania clears the city edge before the showers.
Yes. The Urbania has space at the back for bags, flower baskets and boxes of offerings, and the driver keeps them upright. Carry coconuts and flowers in a closed bag, since the drive is about 4.5 to 5 hours. You can also buy flowers near the temple.
