According to Wikipedia, "BIXI Montréal is a public bicycle sharing system serving Montréal, Quebec, Canada. The name BIXI is a hybrid between "Bicycle" and "Taxi" to underline the concept of being able to use a bicycle just like a taxi.
Launched in May 2009 by Public Bike System Company (PBSC), it is North America's first large-scale bike sharing system and the original BIXI brand of systems. PBSC filed for bankruptcy at the beginning of 2014 as the company started experiencing financial difficulties in late 2013. The city of Montreal then bought PBSC's assets for $11.9 million in February 2014 and created BIXI Montréal, a non-profit entity to run the bike sharing operations.
The Bixi service offers 6,200 bicycles spread over 540 stations (2017) installed on the island of Montreal and its south shore".
