Myles Finlay
My life has been shaped by a love for action sports. I have been mountain biking, snowboarding, and skateboarding my whole life. My pursuit of action sports started with snowboarding, competing in national level snowboard contests through high school. Since moving to Spokane, I transitioned from a weekend warrior to a full on mountain biker. I started racing DH and enduro, which ignited my passion for the sport. I am excited to take young riders from those who bike to "mountain bikers" with the youth race team, and foster the next generation of the biking community.

My passion for biking started with a bike when I was 5 and has continued to expand to this day. From BMX to riding around town on a hardtail with friends, discovering mountain biking at the age of 18 opened up a whole new world of community and progression, particularly within the biking community. This journey led me towards a goal of being more involved in mountain biking coaching and spreading the stoke. After competing in local races, traveling to different bike parks, and integrating into the local biking community, my natural tendency to help others progress has guided me towards starting this team.
