A ride to Astoria to the infamous Zorba's Souvlaki Restaurant.  There are other choices nearby if you don't like Greek food.  Bring your lock, a metro card, spare tube and usual Urban assault gear including lights just in case.  The first bathroom stop is about 5 miles into the ride so plan accordingly.  Bring rain gear and $ for lunch.  There are other lunch choices close by.  

Rain at the start cancels the ride.
