En-route necessary & needed stops! 

Collage of the stops on the way down..

Bottom left picture is of Jill taking her helmet off after I tipped her off the bike when we stopped for fuel!
I always put the side-stand down before she gets off, but I forgot and as she stood up and began to get off the bike... It tipped and instead of stopping on the side-stand it carried on tipping and chucked Jill off in a heap in the garage forecourt! I had to lower the bike to it's side and stepped off myself to see Jill landing on her back with a bit of a bump! Opps!
She was okay, banged her rear end which made it a bit uncomfortable on the bike, but she bravely carried on through the week! And she didn't hit me!
Some chaps came over and helped me get the bike up after I had got Jill up.. So extra needful cup of tea here! (Plus a few paracetamols!)
