Whittier's Greenway Trail is a signature local path. Veloaded Cyclery in Santa Ana is a Cervélo dealer and premium service shop riders drive to.
TrailLink lists the Whittier Greenway Trail at about 7.5 miles on a former railroad corridor. The City of Whittier celebrated a Greenway Trail east extension completion in August 2023, adding miles toward the Orange County / La Habra line. A westward link to the San Gabriel River Trail has been discussed publicly as a future goal—not a finished connection.
Our shop is in Santa Ana. Whittier riders visit for specialist service and Cervélo purchases.
About 23.7 miles by road from Whittier City Hall area (20.0 miles in a straight line). Approximate: computed from OpenStreetMap coordinates and routing data. Traffic and your exact start point change it.
From Whittier City Hall, the general direction toward Veloaded Cyclery is southeast. About 23.7 miles by road (20.0 miles straight line), approximate from OpenStreetMap coordinates and OSRM routing—not a drive-time promise.
Major roads on a typical mapped drive (OpenStreetMap / OSRM step list, roads only—no times): Painter Avenue → Carmenita Road → Santa Ana Freeway → South Harbor Boulevard → Harbor Boulevard. Your turn-by-turn app may differ.
Mapped drives often use Painter / Carmenita corridors toward the Santa Ana Freeway (I-5) and Harbor Blvd south to MacArthur Blvd.

Whittier riders usually visit for specialist work rather than a claim of being the nearest shop: tune-ups, brake bleeds, Di2 / AXS, wheels, builds, and Cervélo quotes. Book service or call (714) 760-4908.
Hub: Los Angeles County.
Flat Greenway volume pairs well with occasional OC canyon weekends. If you are building toward Santiago days, get brakes and tires inspected before the first hot descent.
