JAY:
Always remember the journey's to shields amongst others,I live in Consett and bitd myself and a few mates would have a road trip with our Northern bus express Day pass,We would take the bikes to bits ,chuck them in bin bags so we could get them on the bus and head off down to Newcastle,usually hit Westgate rd first and spend ages in Kaw/Newcastle and riding around the city centre and then head further up to another bike shop just past the general hospital,can't remember the name now.Later wrap the bikes up again,jump the metro barrier and head down to Shields,remember Conways pretty well,but don't remember riding shields very much,but those little road trips when we were youngins were the best.
