[Talk-ca] More rental bikes in Toronto

Hi Toronto Mappers,

The Toronto bike rental system is being expanded, right now!  More
stations are being added, and more bikes for those stations, extending
the coverage area of the bike rental system.  The expansion is
_scheduled_ for completion on 11 July (I presume 2016).

Some stations are already installed and working.  I've added the ones
I've found to the OpenStreetMap database.

Keep your eyes open for new rental bike stations in your
neighbourhood, and on your trips around town.  Add them when you find
them.

Survey it yourself, in person.  Don't use the published station plan.
1) We don't have permission to use their map. 2) Their map is
insufficiently accurate. 3) Their plan doesn't reflect "as built"
locations.

I've been using
amenity=bicycle_rental
operator=Bike Share Toronto
name=Bike Share Toronto
capacity={integer number of bike docks}

Happy mapping,
Richard
