Wow, really sorry to hear that, wish you a quick recovery. Things like that have made me very very selective about who I'll ride with, some folks just don't seem to bring much situational awareness on the road with them and are safer riding alone. They forget that riding with others brings some responsibility. Godspeed
I concur on this as well. which is why 90% of the time I ride alone. I'll keep an eye out for parts
