Dirt Dispatch

In this episode of Dirt Dispatch, Betsy Welch and Piper Albrecht sit down with Christopher Blevins just hours after he clinched the overall XCO series title in Lake Placid, NY. They go deep into Christopher's processes on and off the bike and how they transformed his racing this year. They also talk about what it means to have a World Cup in the U.S., how American fans are different from European ones, and Christopher's hopes for the sport's growth on home soil.
