We got up at about 8:30am.   The weather was overcast, but it didn't look like it would rain.  We left my sister's place at about 11:40am, the BMW started without any fuss (Odometre reading 26516 kms).  We spent about 50 minutes at the local shops buying stuff for the trip back, so at about 12:30pm we were on the road again.
I took my brother-in-law's advise and went through Greensborough and Whittlesea then had lunch at about 1:20pm at Wallan.
We got petrol then started on the Hume Highway at about 2:15pm.  As I watched Junko in the mirrors I could see that she looked tired so we stopped on the side of the highway for a rest at about 2:45pm.  We took some photos, then  I put my camera back in the pannier. As I pushed on the pannier to close it, the back wheel lifted and to my surprise the bike flipped over on it's side stand.

Junko and I managed to pick the BMW up.  I checked for damage assuming the worst.  I was astounded to find that the only damage was some scratches on the fairing.  I thought such a fall would have broken the clutch level at least!  I was unaware of the camber on the Hume where we had stopped and having the preload higher than normal made it easier to tip the bike over with a good push. We continued on to Euroa then on to Glenrowan, Ned Kelly country, at about 5:00pm.

We arrived at Wangaratta at about 6:00pm and I persuaded Junko to ride on in the dark to Wodonga.  We arrived at about 7:00pm and booked in at the Caravan Park.  We had only travelled 320 kms, we would have to go further the next day.
