I think this is what is going to keep happening, I'm afraid.

If your recovery process always creates a stripe set across the 2
disks, then I suggest that you unplug 1 disk before you run the
recovery, install Windows onto just 1 drive, then put Ubuntu onto the
second.

Really, I can't offer much else in the way of advice, I'm afraid.
Sorry! I think you are doomed to misery, corruption and much
continuing and insoluble confusion if you keep trying to dual-boot on
a RAID, be that RAID0, RAID1, RAID5, JBOD or whatever.
