"It's Like Riding a Bike The Bixi isn’t just any bike-sharing system: it’s the very first one to have ever existed, and has since been implemented in a number of cities around the world over the last few years, including New York, London and Paris. Pick any one of the 411 docking stations located in central Montreal and go explore Plateau Mont-Royal, Canal Lachine and Rosemont-Petite-Patrie with a brand new perspective. These areas are ideal for this type of active outing, thanks to their typically-Montreal architecture (tree-lined streets and colorful, twirling staircases), locals-only atmosphere, and flat landscape. Visitors who would rather go cycle with a group can opt for a guided tour around Montreal with operators like Ça roule Montréal and Fitz & Follwell."
