I'm going to start doing this as soon as the weather cooperates for more than a few days. There are plenty of empty parking lots and little cul de sacs around here. I have officially used "cul de sac" in a sentence.
The biggest trouble I have with drills is getting up to a normal speed, that is in a parking lot it can be metally difficult (the physical part is a great work out) to get up to 22-25mph, then execute a drill while maintaining the flow that you'd have on a normal ride. So instead for some rides where there are lots of corners, etc. I focus on these elements.
