Christopher Blevins

Chapters is a creative project by Christopher Blevins and Stilspoke, with support from Specialized, which follows his life as a World Cup XC racer through the 2024 Olympic year.

With one segment covering each month, and a mix of creative mediums, the first video of the series shows Christopher’s off-season, and his search to find the still point in the midst of the craziness of World Cup racing.

Natural State

We grew up on our bicycles. It’s how I got around. It’s how I met all my friends. It’s what we did when we hung out. My bike was the lens through which I saw the world, long before I knew it as a sport.

In December of 2023 it was decided that we would step away from Shredo Files to tell a new story. One without rules, a script or a playbook.

Natural State is that story
