So Whats The Obsession With The Knee Down?

[Lurch]

Tick it off and get back to concentrating on the ahead not whether your knee ia gonna touch or not.

Well, if you're going to ride in a spirited and flamboyant style, it can be worth having a sense of occasion about it.

I felt fabulous this day daring

Pfft, I can see you still have about 1cm to go

Body position is very wrong in that as well

Well, at least you're on the bike...

Was that the hospital one or the one where the bike went cartwheeling over the grass?

For me, rightly or wrongly, it is a bench mark for how confident and competent you have become as a rider. If you are able to take a corner at speed whilst getting all the other stuff Lurch mentioned right, and drag your knee (without getting ripped off the bike) then you must be doing something right and be half way to being a good rider.
This is not me saying that you should or need to do this on the roads though.
BTW I am still about 10ft away from the floor with my knee if that says anything..

I guess riders feel they have reached a certain level once they finally get their knee down, if you ride a sports bike in order to get the full use out of the machine its a skill you need, not on public roads mind you although being a roundabout hero was fun a times.
