"I use my Bike Share Toronto membership a lot even though I have a bike. Whether planned or spontaneous, it’s nice to have the option to use bike share to head to work, run errands, meet friends and more. Bike Share can make bike trips simpler. The flexibility is what makes biking an integral part of my life in Toronto. I save time and money but, most importantly, I feel like I’m doing something good for my mind, my body and the environment. I encourage everyone I know to try it out bike share. It’s an easy way to see what biking is all about."

"Bike Share has absolutely changed the way I get around Toronto.  Gone are the days of waiting for delayed streetcars and long walks.  I now rely on Bike Share to shorten my commute, explore new parts of the city and get valuable exercise.  Bike Share gets me to where I need to be quickly and conveniently, greatly reducing travel time so I can have more time to do the things I love (even though I do love a good bike ride!). Without a doubt, it’s the best $99 a year I spend in the city and I look forward to many more years of Bike Share to come."

"I use Bike Share Toronto because we our responsible for our environment, we are responsible for the future. You can also reach many of your goals while using Bike Share! I have saved my money, saved my time and kept my body in shape. Bike share is easy to use and easy to park. I love Bike share and always recommend it for everyone."

"Having a Bike Share Toronto membership gives me the power of choice.  Using a bike to get around Toronto is almost always the fastest option, but sometimes plans change or the weather conditions are just too bad for me to ride in.  Bikeshare means I never have to worry about choosing between biking when I don't feel safe or leaving my own bike somewhere I don't want to.  I usually stop commuting to work on my bike in the late fall, but since I got my Bikeshare membership I can almost always commute by bike at least one way.  The big tires, fenders, and upright riding position on these bikes make them great for riding in snowy and wet conditions.  Plus, I don't have to worry about the wear and tear of winter riding on my own bike.  I just grab a Bikeshare and go where I want, when I want!"

"I have used Bike Share for the last few years and I love it. It is such an easy, convenient way to get around downtown Toronto. There are docks everywhere across the city which makes accessing the system super easy. Having the system available through smartphone apps makes it very reliable too. I am able to see docks all across the city and see where bikes are available before leaving my home or work. I use a bike at least twice a day to get to and from school and work and wherever else I need to go. I use it year round as well and having access to a bike through the winter months makes commuting a breeze. I recommend Bike Share to anybody who asks about it as it is a reliable, affordable and convenient option for getting me where I need to go year round."

"Being a member allows me to get my code and go. I love how easy getting a bike is. Bike Share Toronto allows me to get to work within 20 minutes. It adds exercise during my commute and less screen time. Planning my route and finding a drop off rack, allows me to explore my city everyday!"

"As a long-time Bike Share member, I know that it’s one of the best ways to get around Toronto quickly - all while getting some exercise too. The recent network expansion of bikes and docks shows that Bike Share is committed to offering Torontonians more transportation options. I am able to make all the trips needed for my busy life. Everything from getting to work, heading to dodgeball and cycling to the library where I help new Canadians practice their English. Bike Share gives me a level of mobility and flexibility that’s simply unbeatable.  Recently, I got selected to ride with some members of the Toronto Wolf Pack rugby team. The waterfront Bike Share trip with them was a definite highlight of the summer so far."

"Believe it or not, I actually began using BikeShareTO in the middle of winter! With stations within 200m of both home and work, not only was it super-convenient, but also usually faster than the 4K ride (and a transfer) on the TTC. When I'm not riding to or from work, I use the Transit or CycleFinder app to locate the nearest available docking station to my destination. The one-way riding option is the thing I like best about the Bike Share program, but even when I'm riding both ways, it's nice not to have to worry about locking up my bike."

"I love that Bike Share offers me mobility on demand. Also, since I’m fairly new to cycling in Toronto, I like the freedom of being able to cycle for a short distance and not have to commit to doing my entire trip on a bicycle, or try wrangling my bike on the subway. Just dock it and go. Now that the weather is nice, it’s fun to explore other options for getting around instead of always being stuck on a bus, streetcar or subway. Having a Bike Share membership has opened up the city to me and has changed the way I think about getting around! Becoming a Bike Share member has changed me from someone who cycled maybe once or twice a year to someone who cycles almost every day. I’ve never felt so free!"

"No doubt about it, Bike Share has transformed my way of life in downtown Toronto. It beats or competes with any other form of transport – affordable, green and point-to-point. I feel empowered by smart technology, good rubber, got your back visibility and enough in the gears to get around town on time and in style. And for sure, I do get around. Not the least of which is gigging as Eugene Ripper - punk folk pioneer and guitarist for first wave punk rockers Stark Naked & The Fleshtones. So yeah, I’m all in – rocking and rolling. Just give me a release code, a gig bag and the open road and I’m good to go: Sat June 08 at the Tranzac Club, 292 Brunswick - bike dock right across the street ! Sat. June 29 at Toronto Island Marina - bike dock at the ferry terminal!"

"My husband and I moved downtown in 2012, partly because we were growing tired of riding up the escarpment to reach home (we’re both seniors!).  Soon after we moved to Cabbagetown, we both joined Bike Share Toronto. Why? First of all, we appreciate the convenience of racks all over downtown, close to most places we visit (e.g. shopping, meetings,  the Y, concerts, work, even a wedding). Secondly, using a bike share gives us the freedom to return from a different place, or walk home if we prefer. Finally, we appreciate the reliability of the bikes and the availability at most racks. When we ride bikes we feel fitter and healthier. We arrive at our destinations alert and refreshed."  

"As one of Toronto’s top riders for 2 years in a row, I really believe in the potential of the Bike Share system. I started cycling in the city 6 years ago as a student and continue till this day, now as a full time performing artist. You can catch me biking any time, day or night and throughout all 4 seasons. I enjoy the curious looks I get from strangers as I roll through the busy streets – especially the shocked faces in the winter. Who knew people could bike through the heavy snow while looking cute? All I need are some headphones, good tunes and I am on my way to seize the day. You can follow my journey on all social media @UsmanKhanTV."

Originally, I was going to use the Bike Share program only in the winter months to save my own bike from the perils of our harsh winter weather. But after my bike had two flat tires in as many weeks, I decided to sign up tout de suite and switch to riding Bike Share bikes full-time. It’s been a year and a half, and I rarely use my own bike now. The ease of use and numerous stations in the downtown core have made Bike Share part of my daily routine. I use it to go to work, to the gym, to get groceries, to meet friends—even to attend the opera and the ballet. You might see me whizzing by in a tuxedo! Bike Share just seems to suit my transportation needs perfectly. It’s a no-brainer!"
