Bikes
Our city bikes are next bikes, the closest place to pick one up is outside the Star Bar on Eglinton Toll. I think you can register for a free membership during COP, just Google, otherwise its pretty reasonable.

how to get to COP
Easiest way is to cycle, straight down Victoria Rd to Clyde them along the Clyde to the west.
Buses will be able to take you too, lots of service options on Victoria Rd, closest stop is at Lidl. They accept card or cash. You can get cheaper tickets on the First Bus App.
Train can take you into town from Queens Park very quickly, I'm not sure how regular they are.
To walk from the flat to town is about 30 mins, I reckon it'd be about 40 to COP.
