He turned professional in 2013 at the age of 17, signing as a neo-pro with the continental Team USN, a British squad focused on developing young talent. His debut season emphasized adaptation to the demands of professional racing, including structured training and team dynamics, though specific road results from this period were limited as he balanced road and track events.This early exposure helped build his resilience, marking a significant step up from junior competition despite the challenges of entering the pro peloton at such a young age. In 2014, Davies joined Madison Genesis, a UCI Continental team, where he quickly established himself by winning the British Under-23 National Time Trial Championship in a time of 27 minutes and 45 seconds, defeating competitors like Owain Doull.  That year, he also achieved a 10th-place finish in the Commonwealth Games road race, racing alongside elite figures like Geraint Thomas, which boosted his confidence amid the intensity of international fields. Davies defended his British Under-23 time trial title in 2015 while riding for the British Cycling Academy, which offered increased continental racing opportunities and a more sheltered development environment. He repeated this success in 2016 with Madison Genesis, securing his third consecutive national championship, alongside a stage victory in the Ronde de l'Isard and second overall in the Tour Alsace, demonstrating growing consistency in multi-day continental events.His debut Grand Tour came at the 2019 Giro d'Italia, where he finished 52nd overall, showcasing his endurance capabilities in a major three-week event..\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Postcard Finder","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56442266714438,"sku":"200318","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/3216\/9030\/files\/scott-davies-welsh-cycling-2015-tour-de-france-12x8-hand-signed-photo-200318-p.jpg?v=1777128556","url":"https:\/\/postcardfinder.co.uk\/products\/https-www-postcardfinder-co-uk-scott-davies-welsh-cycling-2015-tour-de-france-12x8-hand-signed-photo-200318-p-asp","provider":"Postcard Finder","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
