Toronto Bike Share

Apr 26

Toronto Bike Share is a network of rentable bicycles similar to Citi Bike in New York City or Santander Cycles in London. Cruiser bicycles are available at 360 stations throughout the city to rent with a credit card. If you’re looking to explore the city on short trips, you may want to consider renting a bicycle. After your first 30 minutes, no matter what pricing option you choose, you are charged $4.00 for every additional 30 minute increment.

How to Start Your Trip

Every Toronto Bike Share location has a payment kiosk and a series of bicycles locked up. To rent a bicycle, go to the kiosk and select the duration of your ride. If the station near you does not have a kiosk, you can only rent bikes from that station using a membership card or from within the PBSC app on your smartphone. Once you pay via credit card, you are given a numerical code. Take that code to the bicycle of your choosing and enter it to the number pad located to the left of the front tire. This will unlock your bike and you’re off!

How to End Your Trip

To end your trip, find a Toronto Bike Share location with an empty spot for your bicycle. Push and hold the front wheel into the open base station until the light turns green and the bike locks. You are trying to get the metal triangle above the front wheel into the base station securely. Once the light has turned green, and your bike is locked, your trip is complete.

Riding a Bicycle in Toronto

If you’re comfortable biking on a road shared with cars, you should have no problems in Toronto. As with any city, be sure to be aware of people exiting parked cars, being in a blind spot, or vehicles turning right across your path. There are roads in the downtown Toronto area that have protected bike lanes (parts of Richmond, Adelaide, Sherbourne & Bloor) that offer a bit more separation between you and cars on the road. Check out the green routes on this map for protected bike lanes in Toronto.
