If you don’t have your own bike or rollerblades to enjoy Montreal’s beautiful outdoors or if you’re visiting from out of town and would like to get outside and get some exercise, here’s a reasonable-cost solution: rent.
In Old Montreal, Ça Roule Montréal (Montreal On Wheels) offers you this option. They have regular bikes, tandem bikes, and even stroller bikes. If you rent blades, you also get the protective equipment. According to their site: "Included : helmet, lock, bike trail map, repair kit, full protective gear for Rollerblades."
You’d best check their grid for pricing, but prices vary depending on the day of the week, how long you want it and what time you’re getting it. There are half day deals that start at 2 pm. For example, a bike during a weekday would be 8.00 for the first hour and 8.00 for each added hour, but 20.00 flat for a half day, starting after 2. A refurbished bike would go for 15.00 for the half day.
Skates are 9.00 for the first hour any day, then 4.00 for each hour after on weekdays or 4.50 on weekends and holidays.
You can also rent for a flat 24 hours, 35.00 for a bike during a weekday, 28 for skates.
Where: 10 minute walk from Champs De Mars or Place D’Armes subway stations or by bus # 55 last stop
