The weather was great today, so I took the bike to work instead of the 'vertible. I have a small side business, so after work I went to my warehouse to pick up some merchandise. I was turning left into the office park my warehouse is in, when a taxi was turning right coming out of the driveway. He decided to turn left instead, and apparently did not see me. He cut in front of me, just as I was coming into my turn. I pushed harder into the turn and rolled on the throttle to avoid being hit, and scraped my left peg.
As the title of this thread stated, this was my first time scraping a peg. It was scary, but I held it together, and completed my turn without hitting the taxi or dropping the bike. I was really proud of myself for not falling, or losing it when my peg hit the ground!

The first time you scrape your pegs can be scary!
