They're cool, they're accessible, they're eco-friendly... it's Montreal's BIXI bikes! The renowned rental bikes are back for the season (and here to stay year-round for the first time ever!)
This time around, when colder temperatures will setlle in, 150 BIXI stations stay will stay open in the city within a 100-kilometre area. "We are very proud that Montreal was the very first city in North America to debut a large-scale bike-sharing service in 2009," said Alexandre Taillefer, President of BIXI Montreal in an interview.
Not only that, but BIXI will also be adding 414 bikes, 36 stations and 1,468 docking points to their bikes in this new season launched yesterday (that's 865 new stations and 10,000 bikes, including 2,600 electric ones! Way to go, BIXI!)
Until April 15, enjoy a BIXI season membership for only $89, Montreal!
