It's just a long exposure. While it is nice, it certainly doesn't go near "the best pic of all time".

It's a great pic IMO, nice one.
At least you are getting to ride your bike at the moment. I'm not. And I'm pissed about it!

Me likey, nice pix. Just out of curiousity about how long did it take you to learn to put your knee down and drag threw a corner? Mabey im just crazy but I cant imagine it would take more than 6 months of consistant riding and the correct gear to work up the nerve.

its really hard to say.... I bought my bike and road it for 2 months with only a helmet, textile jacket, and gloves... then when I started getting faster, I decided it was time for a leather suit. So I bought the leathers and boots. Two days later, I was dragging knee. So I guess you could say it took me 2 months... but I dont know if I would have done it sooner if I had the suit from the beginning, and I dont know if I would have done it later, if I wasnt pressured by the camera following me. Best part of having a camera chasing me from behind, is I got my first ever knee down on film!
first ever knee drag...
same day, second ever dragging knee... 
same day, third time ever dragging knee...  ]
