South / Re: seeking ideas for expanding alabama coastal connection route

One idea would be to go from Grand Bay to Pascagoula and then west along the Mississippi coast as far as you wanted, along hwy 90, hitting Ocean Springs, Biloxi, Gulfport, Bay St. Louis. Hwy 90 has a good shoulder from Pascagoula to Ocean Springs, but from Biloxi westward I would suggest using the pathway along the beach due to heavy traffic and no shoulder. It would be out and back unless you wanted to loop northward and back through the Desoto National Forest, which does have some nice biking roads.

Another worthwhile detour would be to go east along the beach from Gulf Shores to Perdido Key, checking out FloraBama and Johnson Beach at the eastern end of the island.
