Wind chill nearly killed me when i was up there visiting relatives over the weekend, Raynauds did not help as my hands were white after 5 minutes on the beach front and i saw cyclists in shorts + fingerless gloves , WTF !!

You want to be in the Bigg Market in Newcastle midwinter and see the state of undress of the lasses as they totter from bar to bar. The lads at least make a concession to the cold by wearing long trousers with their t-shirts.

I think I saw you shivering away in your ten fleeces as I completed my 10th length of the sea in Speedos. I was a bit embarrassed for you.

I stayed there a couple of years back after riding the C2C My first impression was not good as I rode in past the Bingo hall that was once a cinema and even that was boarded up. My mate and I won the local pub quiz that night as it was the only place to go, and then got into a fight with a drunk Sunderland FC fan who was then thrown out of the pub. My mate did get chatted up by a lovely looking girl though, so all was not so bad.

The Bigg Market is so not the place to be seen, get yourself to Osborne Road in Jesmond.
