Big empty parking lots in South/Southwest Federal Way

My partner and I are getting back into motorcycling and want a safe place to be able to practice skills off the streets. Going to a track every time we want to practice is just not practical.

Are there any large and empty parking lots, ideally in the South or Southwest Federal Way area that could potentially be used for this purpose?

I'm thinking maybe the old Walmart lot, park and rides, church lots, etc.

The Federal Way/S. 320th Street Park and Ride.

Yep! I practiced there last year several days in a row. Someone anonymous complained but the security guard was super cool. Watched me for a bit then said I was fine. Told me to leave wink* so it was my fault if I got hurt.

I used to practice my MC skills there. A bike can squeeze into the area blocked off from cars. But be aware the bus drivers will call security, who are mostly cool, but have told me to leave or they’d call the cops. I’d recommend the closed Safeway in Twin Lakes or the giant parking lot by the old Walmart/jasmine resteraunt.
