While looking back through my photos I realised I hadn't said anything about "U is for Underground" which was last Saturdays ride because this Saturday was all about brake lines.

This is Scotts Grotto near Hertford. Its a collection of small chambers with shell-lined walls connected by tunnels, which was built in the 1760s by John Scott, a Quaker poet and landowner. It's very dark.

Twas a fun route both there and back as I had the time not to have to rush back down the A10 and was able to appreciate the handling improvements from having had the suspension setup. On the way back I followed a Porsche Targa through the twisty bit, but the driver was doing 50 in the NSL (60 mph) sections and 40 in the 50 limits. From which we can clearly conclude that a Honda CBR600f is better than a Porsche (/s)
