"As Chairman of the Parish Council I wanted to thank everyone who attended the Robertsbridge 800 yesterday. I hope everyone enjoyed what I thought was a truly outstanding event and a great success. Many thanks to all those who worked so hard to organise the event; and of course particular thanks to Simon Longhurst, who took on the job over a year ago and has tirelessly campaigned, cajoled, planned and strategised to engage all the wonderful sponsors behind the event and sort out the daunting logistics. Well done Simon, and well done everyone who came along and supported it. See you at the 900!"
