In 2025 I will be returning to Europe for my third year to live, train and race.

Over the last couple of years, my trips have been primarily self-funded. Preparing for 2025, there is a substantial cost associated with pursuing my goal. In January, I am scheduled to compete at the Under 23 Road National Championships in Perth and then spend 6 months based in Belgium training and racing. This will be with a Belgian club team where I will race in Belgium and France, with the possibility of moving up to a continental team at some stage in the season. I am seeking support in accomodation, insurance, flights and living costs as I take on another year of pursuing my dream in Europe.

I'm very aware that cycling is an "individual sport," but it takes a community to achieve the goals I am setting for myself. The ultimate goal is to go professional and at each step of the way, any support I get is greatly appreciated. The support I have from my community is something I am so grateful for, as it makes the challenges that I have faced and will face a whole lot easier.

There have been many unseen expenses along the way that have been a result of the various injuries particularly being hit by a car whilst training in early 2023 and requiring shoulder surgery after a crash in late 2023. These major injuries have always meant there's less time training and earning money but I have got back up each time and found a way to move forward. If you have the means of supporting me in this journey, it will all go to my goal of getting back to Europe and supporting me as I train and race in 2025.

Thank you for your support.
