A bicycle 10 or moped lighting system projects light onto a rider's legs to make the rider more visible to motor vehicle operators and thereby improve the rider's safety. At least one safety light fixture 30 is mounted to lower portions of bicycle seat stays 24L, 24R or rear portions of the bicycle chain stays 26L, 26R. The light fixture 30 includes light sources 42 generating light beams 31 directed forward onto rear surfaces of the rider's legs. While peddling, the motion of the lighted legs attracts the attention of the motor vehicle operators thereby improving rider visibility. Additional light beams 38a-38c, 40a-40c may be directed inward and upward toward the bicycle frame and/or the rider's buttocks to provide additional visibility to the rider and to allow the motor vehicle operators to more easily identify the bicycle and rider. A second light fixture 110 may reside ahead of the rider to direct light beams 112 onto the front of the rider's moving legs. |
