I was on a training course this week at the Canada School of Public Service down at 1 Front St. I was taking another supervisor course, only one more to go. Lots of construction in the area.
There is a Bixi bike station just outside 1 Front St., according to their website they have 1000 bikes and 80 stations in Toronto.
BIXI was created for short trips. Usage fees encourage frequent utilization for short periods of time. First, you have to subscribe or acquire a 24-hour or 72-hour access to use the service. Take out a bike as many times as you want. Trips of 30 minutes or less have no additional fees; usage fees apply for longer trips.
You can take a bike out for a maximum of 24 hours. After that time, the bike will be considered stolen and a fee of $1,000 will be charged to your credit card.
