A wheeled vehicle, such as a tricycle includes a wheel and a disc mounted on the same axle so that the disc is free to rotate separately from the wheel. The disc includes a plurality of lighting elements substantially along a line formed by a radius of the disc. Each of the lighting elements is lit or unlit as the disc rotates according to the rotational position of the disc. In this manner the illusion of a pattern or picture is made when the disc is rotated at a sufficient speed. A drive mechanism, such as a traction wheel driven by the wheel connected by a belt to the hub of the disc, causes the disc to rotate at a rate that is a multiple greater than the rotation rate of the wheel.
