Light emitting bicycle pedal

A light emitting bicycle pedal comprising:

• a one piece pedal body rotatably journaled on a pedal carrying shaft attached to a bicycle, said pedal body having an upper surface portion for supporting a foot of a cyclist and a rear surface portion comprising a portion of the pedal body which is parallel to the main axis of the pedal carrying shaft and faces toward the rear of the bicycle, said pedal body further having an outer surface portion which is perpendicular to the main axis of the pedal carrying shaft and located at the distal end of said pedal carrying shaft;
• said rear surface portion further housing a light emitting diode circuit comprising a plurality of light emitting diodes and a controllable electron valve connected to a circuit board, said light emitting diode circuit being attached to a first recessed cavity within said rear surface portion of said pedal body;
• said upper surface portion of said pedal body further having a second recessed cavity for housing an electric power source which is electrically connected to said light emitting diode circuit to supply electrical power to said light emitting diode circuit;
• said outer surface portion of said pedal body further having an electric switching means attached to a void on said outer surface portion of said pedal body, said electric switching means electrically connected to said light emitting diode circuit and said electric power source to control the supply of electrical power to said light emitting diode circuit, wherein said electron valve comprises an oscillating circuit such that the light emitting diodes flash when said light emitting diode circuit is energized.
