I've heard about the cone exercises you guys do and apparently it's not all that slow either :-).The rest of us do not usually have the luxury of several day's training. Bronz provides a good training session out at Whenuapai. I've done it three times now. A lot of it is having a space to practice, now that shopping centres are open all weekend, it's hard to find an area to practice on. I've got a school car park in our street. I sometimes practice lock to lock turns there. Riding slow  is does require a lot of skill and being able to do a quick turn comes in handy quite often. I guess most people here seem to be interested in such things as water crossings, riding on loose surfaces, going up and down steep banks etc. I know we have some very capable riders in the register, it's just a question of whether they are interested and/or have the time for such a training session.
