This ride took place in three parts. First, a 21 mile ride through Los Angeles to Culver City on the morning of Thanksgiving day. Second, a 13 mile turnaround ride along the beach from the Doubletree Culver City. We explored Vista Del Mar and Ballona Freshwater Marsh. Third, a 21 mile ride home again. We split the ride up into two days, with a Thanksgiving meal and a good night's rest in a hotel. A highlight of this route included the Ballona Creek Bicycle Path and the bike lane along Venice Blvd. We also LOVE Fountain Ave for traversing East/West.
When Johnny Carson asked Bette Davis for advice on "the best way an aspiring starlet could get into Hollywood," Ms. Davis replied without hesitation, "Take Fountain!" We couldn't agree more.
