Hey,
Glad to here you are OK. I have been riding for a few years and had some close calls myself. I dropped my ride a couple of weeks ago. It was nobody's fault but my own, alcohol and bikes don't mix very well. I was a stupid rider but it was a lesson well learned! $52 for a new peg and handle bar end cap, a few bruised ribs and some road rash! Now I just wave hi to my friends at the bar and keep on riding. Thank God I had all the right gear on. I never told my wife, I just can't stand the thought of a life time of (I TOLD YOU SO!) God I hate when she's right!
Ride safe and sober, I know I will!
