I have been selected to represent New Zealand in the Under 19 women's cross country team for the 2015 UCI World Mountain Bike Champs

Otago

I have been selected by Cycling NZ to represent New Zealand at the UCI Mountain Bike World Champs in Andorra, 31 August to 6 September this year! I'll be racing in the Under 19 women's cross country.

I'm so excited, this is a dream come true! I have always dreamed of representing New Zealand on a world stage.

Every dollar raised will be used towards paying for my Airfares, Travel Insurance, Accommodation and Meals for the duration of my trip

Thank you in advance for your support.

3 Weeks to go! 25 July 2015

THANK YOU so much to the people who have already donated!

I have been training really hard which hasn't been easy with the cold winter conditions but training has been going well and I am getting very excited as I only have 3 weeks before I leave!

My family and I held a quiz night and I was blown away by all the support we received from family, friends, school and the wider community especially the local bikers around Dunedin.

I have been racing in the local cyclo cross races on my signal speed the last few weekends including the national champs, having some good battles with other riders.
