The 10 longest rides by start-to-destination distance
33.7129, -7.3996
I found a boat here to go to the Caribbean. Insane luck. I was on another boat at that time and only hopped onto it in Lanzarote. Not many boats here far better to search in Gibraltar or the Canaries
42.2802, -122.8143
I was hitching Southbound, directly from the highway. There is a huge gravel pad for traffic to pull off. There is a truck stop (Petro) near by.
I got picked up by a big rig and got a ride all the way to Dallas, TX.
39.9815, 22.6230
Longest ride ever, 2,509.2 km in a driving time of 22:41. Only five starts because of the distance, waiting time of 2:20 is more than three times my average.

There are some hitchhikers normally waiting behind the border and. Most of them are organising with the truckers somehow. It's definitely not easy there but you are visible to everyone and with some luck you'll catch some tourists who are going far. (French campers rarely take strangers haha)
40.6445, 17.9166
Second longest ride ever, 2,420 kmin a truck. Detour towards the south to pick up 30 tons of grapes, and via the Frejus tunnel and Luxembourg.
49.5797, 10.9287
Fourth longest ride ever, via the old YU & BG. Three days. Five stars only because of the length.

I got the offer for the ride in Grenada but there are many boats here. You could just wait at the dingie piers and ask the captains though an island with a marina is probably preferable
38.3664, 23.3245
First ride over 2,000 km (2,217.0). With a woman who let me sleep in the car overnight in YU. Five stars, waiting time short, probably not at the spot that was here in 1986, and long ride.
42.9991, 22.8306
I asked drivers in the cue of the border.

I got a car in relative less attempts.
Not so much traffic as in a gas station, but enough, at least in summer.

Lots of Polish trucks resting. Passenger cars mostly local traffic. But some Polish drivers returning back home. I got lucky and made it all the way to other side of Poland.

Got picked up by a motorbike going a coupple villages over, dropped me off at a broken bridge where the trucks slowed down to continue hitching. Used a 5km sign
16.6203, 106.4990
The bridge was under reconstruction so all the trucks had to slow down to cross, made it easy to get a ride with a vietnamese truck with a 5km sign.

A motorbike stopped and drove me to the buss station as i was walking down the street :)
16.6811, 104.9596
Was hitching in the evening and got a ride in the back of a truck going about 60km north, got to enjoy a beautifull stary night as we rode.
17.0698, 104.9875
Was hitching late at night and got picked up by a night buss going to vientiene and got a free ride. Not the best spot but there is place to pull over and some lights.

Going West/to France. Super easy spot lots of space, but only cars coming from Austria are covered. But I always got a quick ride here
46.1289, 6.0903
Going South/Grenoble: I like the spot, lots of space, but people in this area always seem to be in a rush, both times I stood here I had to wait a long time. (First time I was going to Lyon and had to go to another place) Though people coming from north and from sout who want to go on the highway south have to pass here, so it seems to be the best option around.

Going southeast/direction of Briançon. Why bother making a sign? I held it up for like half a minute and a nice french family picked me up:)
45.0566, 5.7722
Going East->la Grave in direction of Briançon. Lots of space here, but at this time not many cars came by. But still got an unexpectedly fast ride.

Most drivers were local, but exceptionally friendly. People kept stopping to apologize they were getting off at the next exit, one guy circled back to offer food. Asked a swiss number plate and he offered a ride as far as the swiss border. I opted to get out south of Lyon, but should have stayed with him until east side of Lyon.
