Your wife ride with you after that?
Solo riders don't understand how much different it is to carry a passenger.
A few months ago our group had a picnic and set out some cones for skills practice. Oddly enough I was better with my passenger than solo.
Yeah, she continued to ride...no problems...just the risks of riding. Dodged the bullet. I'm a true believer in the phrase "I don't go faster than my angel can fly"...80mph on the freeways is very comfortable.
