That was close.

You did make that hit to the tree look easy. We've all done that at one time or another.

I see a lot a videos of near misses. A lot at sand dunes where people park at the top and get plowed into by people climbing the dunes. Or they take the same line going back down and hit someone. If you know other people are also out there riding, its common sense to use some caution when you can't see that far ahead of you. I do it myself when I ride locally. I always assume there might be someone coming from the other direction that can't see me either. Might still not be able to avoid a collision sometimes but a slow speed crash is much better than a high speed one.
