Is Ryan still going to Australia in February to train with Leith Brodie?

I've been saving this photo in case there is news that Ryan is in Australia training with Leith Brodie. Ryan said in an interview at SC Nationals that he planned to travel to Australia in February.

However, now that Ryan has entered in the Missouri Grand Prix on Feb. 13-16, it is possible that the travel to Australia has been cancelled.

The Australia national championships (and trials for the 2009 world championships) will be held on March 17-22. I guess there is time for Ryan to train with Leith between the end of the Missouri Grand Prix and the start of the Australian championships, but I'm beginning to think it is doubtful.
