ABSTRACT:
A safety device suitable for mounting on bicycles which includes a pinwheel rotatable in response to airflow relative to the bicycle. The pinwheel carries a pattern of material visually perceptible at a distance which changes in appearance upon rotation of the pinwheel. A shroud surrounds the pinwheel to prevent accidental contact with the rotating pinwheel and to direct airflow against the pinwheel. The shroud may be convergent in order to increase the effect of the airflow on the pinwheel.
