It's all one big club. I nod more now instead of waving but that is my choice at present. Stopping for another rider who is stranded is just good manners and judgement. One person alone in the middle of nowhere may be a threat in some cases but likely as not he/she may be your next best friend.
Last Sept Lynda(my SO)took a ride half way across Canada to see her brother. This was her 2nd trip there on a bike and was riding alone this time. She met a lot of wonderful folks whenever she just stopped for a break, gas or pics of scenery. The one time she stopped to make a windshield adjustment a fellow in a pick-up stopped to make sure she was alright. When he was sure things were done and Lynda was okay he left in the other direction. Had to have been another rider.
