* '''64km further [128km total]:''' '''Coles Express Euroa''' (and MacDonalds) is about 2kms after Euroa township and on the southbound side of the freeway, but northbound traffic sometimes stops here. Get out here if your driver is going to Violet Town or Benalla.
* '''73km further [200km total]:''' '''BP Glenrowan''' (and MacDonalds). This servo is about 12km before Wangaratta. Get out here if your driver is going to [[Wangaratta]], Myrtleford, Beechworth, Yackandandah, [[Wodonga]] or [[Albury]]. If you are hitching at night definitely get out here if you driver doesnt at least go to Gundagai. The Caltex 's at Holbrook and Tarcutta are small and dont get much traffic through the night, you can try your luck , but even during the day they are relatively quite quiet petrol stations off the freeway. In any case, to minimise your risk of getting stuck, you want to aim to get a ride at least to the Gundagai from the Glenrown BP servo.
* If you end up with a ride that will go up the Olympic Highway (A41) towards Wagga Wagga during the day and you missed the BP Glenrowan servo, you can ask the driver to drop you at the Hume Freeway onramp coming from Wagga Road about 10kms north of Albury, but you might be thumbin' it there a while until you get a ride, especially at night (I dont think there are even street lights there). It is more advisable to stop at Glenrowan BP servo and look for a ride going at least to the Coles Express at South Gundagai.
