Reid Myers has been riding bikes since an early age, with most of his time spent on fixed gear and BMX bikes due to their low cost and urban popularity in his hometown of Rialto, CA. Reid played club baseball from youth until High School, where he then played a combination of flag football, basketball, and volleyball. His passion for cycling started to gain traction around this time when he founded the Loma Linda High School Cycling Club with a couple of friends. Reid’s passion for cycling grew after heading off to college, as it became his main mode of transportation. He stumbled across the Search for Speed program a few years later while working at Cyclery USA. He saw that the shop followed Search for Speed on Instagram and immediately delved into the tryout process. His efforts paid off, as he is now part of the Track Sprint Development Program. He is currently studying for his BS:ME with a minor in Manufacturing and Welding Technology. When he isn't studying he can be found under his car making modifications, playing video games with friends, or out chasing KOMs on a fixie.

He began his college career competing for Central Arizona College and later found himself at the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities at the Division 1 level. Upon graduation, Elliott wanted a way to stay active that didn’t involve running, so he took up cycling. He joined a local bike shop where his boss taught him the ins and outs of all things cycling. Being a post-collegiate athlete, Elliott’s boss convinced him to try racing. In 2021, Elliott’s significant other Martina convinced him to move to San Diego, CA.
