The most time I haven't been on the bike for is about 2 weeks. Not much of a need for refresher exercises. I'd like to practice low speed maneuvers regardless, but there are only a couple places and times I can do that without getting in anyone's way.

Same here. I practice braking hard every time I take one of my bikes out. Too many people out there doing dumb things, and to me, the ability to brake quickly is the skill that will most likely save my ass.

Exactly, I do it for a few reasons. I want to make sure there are no problems with the brakes, steering bearings, or tires. And I also want to test the traction and my ability.

Forgot to mention, I'd prefer to test those things leisurely as opposed to having my life rely on it and being unsure of my ability.

Yep. For me, grabbing a handful of front brake is second nature. If I have to do it in an emergency situation, it is second nature, as it should be.
