Crank arms too long?

Hey everyone, just getting into the whole ss/fixed thing and am currently using the freewheel to get a better feel for the gear/pedal all the time thing and after taking a corner at some speed yesterday my pedal hit the ground at about the apex of the corner... am I laying into it to hard, or perhaps are my cranks too long? I was able to hold off a fall on the freegear, but I think if I were going fixed I'd be all over the pavement right now...

do you guys often have problems clipping the ground in your corners, or is this just newb riding style?
