Fuel between Alice Springs and Adelaide
From Alice to Kulgera (almost at the Northern Territory/South Aust border) is 275km. At least 2 fuel stations in between.
From Kulgera to Marla 180km (fuel at both)
From Marla to Coober Pedy (the famous Opal town) is 235km, with fuel also at Cadney Homestead about half way.
From Coober Pedy to Glendambo is the LONGEST stretch WITHOUT fuel - 252km.
From Glendambo to Pimba, (Woomera) 113km
From Pimba to Port Augusta, 173km, no fuel.
This road (Alice to Pt Augusta) is very good bitumen (tar, pavement) although only single lane each way. Very easy travelling, speed is "officially" 110kph, but most travel faster. Fairly desolate in places, but interesting scenery in others. Well worth the trip.
Be VERY careful travelling it at night (not recommended!!) due to the vast numbers of kangaroos, particularly between Coober Pedy and the NT border. It's a shock to the system when your bike hits one, believe me!!!
From Port Augusta to Adelaide is the main transcontinental highway, although mostly only single lane each way, with fuel available frequently.
Hope this helps. Ask, if any further info is required.
