No insider info here. Just seeing a lot more Divvy bikes on the streets and more times when I can't get a bike or an empty dock.

Divvy didn't finish installing all the current stations until October last year, so I have a feeling that there are a lot of people who deferred purchasing an annual membership until this spring, and now we're seeing the surge in usage.

I've seen a lot more too.  Plus the annoying side effect of empty stations in the loop when I leave for the day, and full stations when I arrive.  I've called in to ask that they balance the Chase Plaza station better.  Its a daily occurrence there.

Just in the last week I've seen a big improvement in how they're doing at keeping the Federal Plaza supplied in the evening. It's still hit or miss for me at Clark/Congress in the morning. Today I walked up just as the last bike was rolling away.

I grabbed the last Divvy Bike at the Wrigley Station last Friday.    I was kind of surprised it was that empty.   I didn't take that long to get out of the park.  Although arriving I had a number of bicycle docks  available to me.  I don't know if there is more than one station... this one's near the triangle.
