This was my first attempt at motion panning, i took about 130 pics of which over a hundred were thrown straight to recycle bin!
I'm happy with this one though, have to see how it goes.

For those who wanted to know how it was done (and the one that didn't believe it was and made me validate it :o) )
This is a friend of mine and i got him to cycle back and forth whilst i practiced the panning and follow through the shutter. I had it on shutter priority at 1/10 and he was cyling quite fast. I tried 3 different lenses for a variety of focal lengths and this one came out best. Its t 10mm focal length on the 350D APC sized sensor. Thats how it's got the circular style motion blur, and i got the timing right to get him "finishing" in the center.
