Chris, I'm fairly local to you (Live in Ashington but commute to Wallsend 2 days a week by bike). if the shop you went to is Whiptail which I presume it is, you wont go far wrong. They have an excellent reputation and I'm sure will be happy to help with any queries you have.
The Wagonways are a really good place to cycle around and get a feeling for your bike - think theres around 40 odd miles of them - North Tyneside Council have free maps that you can request which feature all the cycle lanes in the area - give them a bell and they will send a map out. It's a great way of exploring the area and I guarantee you will find places you never knew existed no matter how long you have been living here :-)
