Yes, I think we have all been there, or will be there one day. Glad that you are OK.
13 years ago I dropped my good old Moto Guzzi Griso on the very first day I brought it home. I rode very slowly up on our (slippery wet grassy) driveway and, not fully grasping the difference between my old dual sport DRZ400 and a heavy torquey road bike with road tires, I made the turn too tight, and down I went. I was fine, and the bike only had a small scratch on its plastic cylinder protection bar, but lesson learned (I hope...
