What was your first newbie moment?

On my first voyage which was a long one. West coast, east coast trip to visit in laws. Made the trip in four days. Not kidding. We were on day 3 and I was tired. Went to fill up at the gas station and hooked a hard right, not realizing I wasn't far enough past the pumps. I rode up on the island curb and ripped off the paper towel dispenser. Ker thud was the noise. Gouged the rear tt compartment door and marker light. Needless to say embarrassing. That was the only problem or issue on the 5400 mile trip. Makes wide right turns is right. Newbie move for sure.
