Velo Pro Cyclery - Santa Barbara

Collective 13

Coastal Miles & Tour de France Thrills

On Saturday, July 19th, Velo Pro in Santa Barbara hosted another unforgettable Collective 13 ride, drawing a strong local turnout. Before we clipped in, riders gathered to watch an electrifying Tour de France mountain-top finish — a stage that saw Tadej Pogačar take the win in spectacular style.

Fueled by the excitement, the group rolled out for a 44-mile coastal route heading south toward Carpinteria before climbing into the scenic switchbacks of Toro Canyon. The mix of ocean air and challenging elevation made for the perfect Santa Barbara summer ride.

Nate Cannon was on hand to capture the day — from pre-ride anticipation to the smiles at the summit — ensuring the memories live on long after the wheels stopped turning.
