some bixi facts

Some Bixi facts popped up at the Montreal city council (comité exécutif de la Ville de Montréal) meeting last night.

La Presse reports:

• There are 5000 Bixi bikes in Montreal.
• 125 Bixis were stolen last year.
• Other missing Bixis have been found at garage sales and even in the Lachine Canal.
• We spent $23 million on the 5000 bikes plus the related infrastructure.

Biking is so much better than walking.
