Bikers said their final farewell to Tyneside’s oldest Hell’s Angel.

Pensioner Frank Allan, of North Shields, died of a heart attack while riding his beloved Harley Davidson.

The 78-year-old died doing what he loved, and was given a fitting send-off by pals from the Geordie Chapter of the Harley Owners Group Worldwide.

More than 50 riders followed the funeral procession on their motorbikes, which set off from the Just Harleys shop in Sandyford, Newcastle, where Frank bought his first bike, which he swapped for a £20,000 three-wheeler last year.

At the head of the cortege was a designed trike carrying Frank’s coffin in a sidecar.

The rally roared past the rows of motorbike shops on West Road as it headed to the Westgate Road Crematorium.
