Easily the most fun I've had on the bike in the last four or five years ... I discovered two new road bike accessible Cat 2 climbs for the state of Alabama (although one is unpaved for the steep second half of the climb). I took a bazillion pictures and screenshots - will be posting a blog sometime in the next couple hours.
Well, I'm getting to be a blind old man - apparently the name of the mountain on the old military base is "Moorman" Mountain. I saw signs for that once or twice but I also thought I saw a sign that said "Morrow Mountain". I guess I was just delirious! :-)

I've added a write-up, but I'm still working on the photos - I boiled the ride down to 10 surprises - check it out here - http://toonecycling.wordpress.com/2012/02/04/exploring-climbing-riding-the-oxford-jacksonville-ridge-line/
Ok, i've updated the blog with all the photos here - most fun on the bike in several years - absolutely amazing climbs up here in oxford, jacksonville, anniston - http://toonecycling.wordpress.com/2012/02/04/exploring-climbing-riding-the-oxford-jacksonville-ridge-line/

I hope you don't mind, but I put a link to this ride on the the Cheaha Challenge blog.
