Hey ged,
If you want a bunch of nice basic picking excersises then chances are you can't get any better than Eric's "The Art of Picking" articles (1, 2 & 3). Working on the excerises there will definately help you.

Or just practice that little lick in Eric's signature over and over!

Yeah that Paul Gilbert lick is one of my favourites, with that and its variations it makes for some great alternate picking excersises.
