Some fields sleep longer than others.
The dog was at the gate before dawn.
No lead.
No witness.
No explanation.
Only the sort of silence
that usually means a man has made plans
without telling his wife.
Florian’s Dog

Three places have been unusually quiet.
One has a pump by the door.
One keeps receipts for men who deny breakfast.
One serves tea to the chair that nobody mentions.
Look for:
19:80
16.07
20.22
Bring small change.
Bring no excuses.
Bring the dog.
Florian’s Dog
soon, reluctantly

The Sardines’ favourite band, Florian’s Dog, have released a new single inspired by the recent Sardines cycling trip to Girona and Barcelona.
It contains cycling, sunshine, questionable route knowledge, red w**e, tired legs, mild bravado, and the quiet sound of grown men pretending they weren’t suffering.
A classic Dogs tribute to a classic Sardines trip.

M-m-m-my Girona.
Classic Dogs!

The Sardines are heading for Spain. This summer, Jersey’s famous cycling shoal sets off on The Girona Grape Escape, a glorious journey through Catalan climbs, coastal roads, vineyards, lakes and the occasional strategically important brewery, before rolling onward to Barcelona for the Tour de France Grand Départ atmosphere.
Expect heroic suffering, the usual questionable navigation, immaculate kit discipline, café diplomacy, paella-fuelled recovery, and tales of bravery growing larger with every evening refreshment.
From Girona’s hills to Barcelona’s bedlam, the Sardines ride again.
Pedala fort. Beu bé. Viu llargament. Visca les Sardines.

A glorious Sardine Wednesday pub ride this week, with the sun finally remembering its duties and shining properly upon the faithful.

Warm roads, fine company, a good turn of the pedals, and then the true business of the evening: returning to Sardine HQ— otherwise known to the wider civilian world as Trinity Arms — where the troops were, as ever, looked after in magnificent style.

Great b**r, fabulous food, and the sort of welcome that makes a man believe he has conquered something far greater than a midweek spin round Jersey.

All hail the Wednesday pub ride. Long may it roll, and long may the good people of the Trinity Arms keep the Sardine ranks fed, watered, and ready for further nonsense.

Weekend rides incoming, Sardines.
The weather looks glorious — warm, sunny, light winds — which can only mean one thing: prime conditions for a proper ride on the lanes and excellent preparation for the forthcoming Sardine Girona/Barcelona adventure. Fine weather, fine company, correct kit, and every chance of nonsense. Just as it should be.
Alive and Kicking.
