First of all, I have no idea how to thank all of you, and this whole Aulro community for stepping up to help Dad get to Canada to watch me. It means the world to both Dad and myself... you guys are so awesome <3 
In regards to the bike situation, I appreciate the effort you have gone to in getting the ball (or wheels...geddit[tonguewink] ) rolling. However i have a certain loyalty to my local bike shop (AvantiPlus North Brisbane) as every single bike i have ever had has been from there. The one we have been recommended is about $4000, which I'm pretty sure i could get for cheaper, as the shop is very involved with me (They already have given me an elite coach that they pay for as well as a job there...i start Saturday woohoo [biggrin] ). 
Sitting there in Maths yesterday watching donations rolls into my Gofundme page from real people who are donating their own real money to a girl they've never met reduced me to tears, thank you again. I will never be able to thank you enough. Having dad there to watch me compete on the world stage would be a dream for both me and him. It wouldn't be the same if he wasn't there. He's watched my crap races and my best races, and every single one inbetween in this crazy journey to the position I'm in now. Thank you Aulro. And you're right "Sponsored by Aulro" does sound cool :thumbsup:
Big love to each and every one of you,
- Kels
