Check the website, but they have a great system network - and station everywhere. There is one at Woodbine and Eastwood, on the corner beside the cemetery. Also, if you want to stroll to the Beach, have a coffee and then start a bike ride, there is a station at the beach on Kewbeach Ave near Kippendavie. From there, there is the Martin Goodman Trail. It is a recreational path, also for bikes that goes all along the waterfront to downtown Torontoand beyond. There is also Tommy Thompson Park/Leslie Street Spit for beautiful nature bike or walk.
