Divvy's "Red Unicorn"

Has anyone seen the Divvy Red Unicorn?

I just found out about it today in this August 1st Chicago Tribune online article: Chicago's 'unicorn': new red Divvy bicycle

Apparently, there is one Red Divvy bike that was introduced into the fleet to promot Divvy through a contest:

From the article:
"People who see it this month and take photos or shoot video of the red bike can enter to win gift certificates from local companies by posting pictures online with the hash tag #divvyred, Klein said. Annual Divvy memberships will be given out to the 25th, 50th, 75th, 100th, 200th and 300th people who rent the red bike this month."

Has anyone seen it?

Last Tuesday, on the lakefront at Fullerton, I saw a guy in a suit taking photos of the elusive bike.

I saw it on Clybourn at the rack across from City Farm a few days ago...  

I almost stopped to take a photo to post here- make it into a hide-and-seek game for Chainlinkers :)

Next time...

It was docked at Fullerton/Sheffield a few days ago - a coworker rode it, not realizing what it was!

Being tracked on Twit-O-Gram since it debuted.

I heard about this on some Chicago bike forum. Chainslap or something like that.

I saw a fellow riding it northbound on the LFT just north of Monroe last night.  I was at the Monroe pump-out dock and yelled "RED DIVVY!" at him, but got no response.

Alas, that was my only sighting of this near mythical creature.

I wonder how many folks ride it and think "hmm, there are red ones too now, well, whatever."

LQARL*

(Yes, I know the grammar is bad, but I got it from someone else and I like the LQARL)

If I find it, I will post a picture of it in a hole for the sake of merging two 'Where's Waldo?' threads.

I found it and used it from Wrightwood and Ashland and took a pic with it. I posted it on Divvy's facebook page and won a $100.00 gift certificate to D4 Irish Pub and Grill.
