About

Bayli McSpadden

Endurance-focused cyclist competing in UCI World Cups, Continental Series, and National races with consistent podiums and top-10 finishes across U23 and Elite categories. Former U.S. Ski Team member (2019–2020), I transitioned from alpine ski racing to cycling and now pursue excellence at the international level.

Driven by dedication, resilience, and the thrill of competition, I strive to represent my sport and supporters with professionalism and integrity.
