My friend was rear ended by a cyclist!

Yesterday on the return from Bardstown to Louisville, Ky my friend was riding alone. Another cyclist hit the rear wheel of her bike and knocked her off. She injured her elbow. I have not heard yet if it was serious. She was going to have it x-rayed today.

The other cyclist was alone also. I'm having a hard time understanding how an accident like this could have happened. There were about 1,000 riders on this tour, some of them inexperienced, but nevertheless, how could someone ride into another person?

I'm curious if anyone else has ever seen something like this happen and what would have caused him to rear end her like that?
