Freeway ramps on i70 would work just fine...I used them for this purpose.

There are some pads/rotors that don't need a bed in process, and some really do. If yours do and you daily drive it without bed in, you'll notice some discoloration that looks like warping on the rotor. The only thing it will do is age your rotors faster (how much is arguable). If you ever track the car you'll notice some pedal vibration that will feel like brake fade, but isn't.
