Whats the best way to get from hollywood/highland to the key club around 9 pm?

Last time I tried this I thought I was going to die on Sunset so I went down to Santa Monica and I missed a turn or something and ended up at Wilshire lol and had to say fuck it and miss the show. Yeah, I'm new to LA

How's Fountain around that time?

Fountain is okay if you're okay with biking close to parked cars and traffic since there's no bike lane and it's a little dark through some parts of Hollywood. But GOGA rode it at that time of night, and we were all fine.

FYI Fountain is going to end at La Cienega. Going North (right on La Cienega) to Sunset is super steep there....I'd recc. going South on La Cienega for a block and turning right on Holloway (a residential) which will merge into Sunset 5 blocks away from the Key Club. At which point I'd personally either walk my bike the last 5 blocks or ride the sidewalk bc the traffic there scares me shitless.

I would just hop on the 302 or the 2 bus at Sunset and La Brea, it will take you all the way up to the Key Club. You can get off on Doheny.

take highland to fountain, take fountain to fairfax, take fairfax to santa monica, take santa monica to where santa monica angles left ,but instead of turning ride up that big hill.

if you stay on sunset it's all downhil more or lessl but some people don't riding like sunset.

That Holloway Dr. hill is a killer and they you still have to climb another hill on Sunset. It definitely is a workout, if you are up to it.

Sunset directly is probably the least hilly, as it's a gradual run up...

Fountain and Santa Monica both have stretches of nutty drivers and being close to traffic also though...

either way, make sure you have a bright tail light and you should be alright!

Did you go to the Key Club for the New Number 2's and Dethkills show?

My buddy is Dethkills clothing... that was a cool show/afterparty.
