230 yards but the ball ended up in the rough
nullabor plain, no change in the scenery for what seems like months, same goes for the west coast drag to the north. San Antonio to Everett Wa, big miles but boredom nowhere near the levels of Aus. Four hours driving will leave you four hours still to go to nowhere in particular. Have a safe trip, ignore the flies, keep the radio on for news of forest fires and/or floods, and don't mention the cricket....but you know all this, just pointing out that monotony is a real downer, for some of us at least.

Did that every fucking Friday for a few months on a couple of occasions in my life. Usually lost the will to live by Uttoxeter, and that's before getting to the M6.Northants to Manchester on the Fucking M6 !

Cleveland to Myrtle Beach SC area. A solid 12 hours after a couple of quick fill-ups, pee breaks. I-77 though the mountains of West Virginia is always a bit of an arse-clencher.

Used to drive from Sale to 80 miles the other side of Barcalona, 1221 miles. Longest single stint across France was 940 miles.
Picked a client up at MIA early one morning and arrived back later that night after doing over 800 miles taking in the delights of return trips to Southampton, Anglesey and Edinburgh.
Did a road trip around the southern States of the US approx 3000 miles in 3 weeks.
Now I get cramp after an hour.
I'm a riot at parties, honest.

Longest drive was from Idaho to Cocoa Beach FL via San Diego
Driven to Des Moines IA from here many times too, not the longest (1100 m each way) but I80 across Wyoming in early winter is a nightmare

Once drove from Scrabster (the Orkney ferry terminal) down to Warrington in a single day. Took about 10 hours and was quite a tough drive. You need to factor in a fair number of stops. Also drove from NW England down to Chamonix in a single go taking it in turns to drive and going through the night - that was tough!
