Pad Deposits or...?

Damn, I hope not. I was pretty intentional/hard on the brakes during the bed-in process so I'm surprised if it still turned out that I didn't bed it correctly. And

Out where I live, it's hard to find an open enough stretch of road to go through the bed-in procedure without looking like a jackass. For those of you who live in suburb/metro areas, any recommendations on how you bed your brakes?

Also, how many hours of cold street driving do you think is necessary to remove uneven pad deposits?

Don't worry too much about it, it's pretty hard to bed in brakes for track duty on the street. Do the best you can, I have similar issues with bedding, early morning industrial parks work best. Driving won't really get rid of them.
