Known as the "90 Mile Straight", this road, a part of the Eyre Highway, crosses prairie land or grassy savannah land. Whilst there are no bends, it does go up and over crests.
Having "set sail" westwards, your scribe had begun curving at 110km/hr at the western end of the straight before he pressed the "mark" button on the GPSr to indicate the other end. The coords at the western are thus only approx as follows: S32°27.326' E123°56.481' .
A long and boring drive?? Well only if you are a boring person! With "open eyes" and a preparedness to look around you, it can be fascinating!
Type of documentation of superlative status: Sign proclaiming such.
