Abstract

A bicycle is provided with safety apparatus consisting of a plurality of battery powered lights attached to the spokes of the bicycle wheels. The wheels are covered on each side with an apertured cover attached to the bicycle frame. Rotation of the wheels causes the lights to pass the apertures and be visible as flashing lights to the sides.
