A huge thanks to everyone that joined us and competed in the 2025 P&I Races at Porters Alpine Resort on Monday 8 September – the weather, snow and course set-up was phenomenal!

We would like to extend a huge thanks and shout out to the Porters Crew for collaborating with us to make this event a reality this year in what has been arguably one of Cheeseman’s trickiest winters in many years!

Congratulations to everyone for competing and to those who took medals home.
