Long distances between services in California

Just on a whim... which roads have long distance between services in California.... signed or unsigned.... minimum 50 miles...

So far, I have the following:
CA-62 - 93/100 miles between 29 Palms and Vidal Junction
CA-58 - 70 miles between Santa Margarita and McKittrick, CA. Although I think the 82 miles is to Buttonwillow
CA-127 - 57 miles betweek Baker and Shoshone
I-40 - 55 Miles between Ludlow and Essex

I don't think US-395 between Bridgeport and Topaz qualifies, but only barely.... there was a very expensive station in between the two areas. Also, CA-36 between Hydesville and Red Bluff, thanks to a notorious price-gouging station in Platina.
Your voices.... cannot... defeat... MMMMEEEE!!!!

Route 46 between Golden Hill Road in Paso Robles and Route 33 in Lost Hills lacks services for approximately 50 miles

Route 1 has a services gap from Big Sur to Cambria, 68.6 miles: https://goo.gl/maps/Y5ZQL

There are services in San Simeon Village and Ragged Point, so the distance isn't quite as long.

There is a services desert (signed eastbound, at least) on SR 190 that runs 57 miles east of Stovepipe Wells--Amargosa (SR 127 junction) is the right distance to be the other endpoint.

I think the Ventucopa-Ojai desert (which I encountered last September) is also signed, but I have not been able to locate the sign in StreetView.
