Adios Mallorca, Ho-yee Tynemouth!

First ride on the bike since Mallorca. Brrrr, 15 deg cooler too! Crap drivers intent on slicing a few microns of skin off my elbow almost, rubbish road surfaces but on the plus side my bike has just been serviced and is running sweet, gear changes are super-slick as a new chain has been fitted, and braking improved - new pads. Both items having been worn-out.
