You can pick up and drop off bikes at different locations, credit card required for rental, it's all automated. There are designated bike paths and many roads have bike lanes, but there is not one cohesive system, so you'll find the bike lanes change dramatically from one neighborhood to the next. Trinity Bellwoods is part of a major bike path, with hundreds of bikes passing by daily.
