Best route to Mass Pike at rush hour?

[fenicedautun.livejournal.com]

So I just got a job offer for a job that would require me to take the pike out to Framingham area every morning. I've never actually tried to get to the pike (I'm in Ball Square area) in the morning, and wondered if anybody had favored routes?

I am sure that others more clever than I could provide a map but this is the general route that I take from Davis to the Pike.

Mass ave to Walden St. Walden / Reservoir to Huron. Left on Huron, right on Appleton to Brattle. Left on Brattle then right on Hawthorn continue to Mem Drive. Left on Mem, right on Kennedy and left on Storrow to the Pike.

As I look at a map you could use Sparks from Huron to Mt. Auburn but I like having the light at Hawthorn. To reverse, I take Lowell from Mt. Auburn to Brattle as Hawthorn is a one way.
