| - Brilliant. Perfect way to explore the city.
We randomly saw this place on a night jaunt across Prince Arthur. A member of our crew was interested in buying a scooter back in Toronto, so we looked up the store, and rented e-scooters the next day.
It was shockingly easy to arrange. We simply filled out a form, gave a copy of our IDs (no drivers license necessary), and we were given the scooters. A quick, 5 minute lesson, and we were on our way around the city.
Montreal is an excellent city to discover on a bike. There are many bike paths, and you can find maps.
Best destinations:
- head down Berri to Old montreal. You can zoom around the old port and then across the canal. Bike lanes continue across to the other side of the canal, and as you continue south-east along, you'll reach a fork in the road. One way will take you across the bridge to the biosphere. The other will take you to Isle de Sores. If you're going to Isle de Sores make sure you have a lot of charge on your battery, it's best done as 2 separate trips, as you could easily run out of juice on your bike.
- head down Berri toward the water. This time turn east and go along the coast. turn north at some point and head up to olympic stadium
