1. A bicycle system comprising:
- a bicycle having a charging circuit configured to capture energy associated with movement of the bicycle; and
a power module attached to the bicycle and selectively attached to an external device, the power module configured to, in response to an indication of a stored power of the device falling below a predefined threshold, close an electrical connector disposed electrically between the charging circuit and power module to enable power transfer therebetween.

Abstract
A bicycle includes a frame, a charging circuit carried by the frame and configured to capture energy associated with movement of the bicycle, a power module carried by the frame, and a switch disposed electrically between the charging circuit and power module. The power module, in response to an indication that the bicycle is travelling downhill, closes the switch to enable energy transfer between the charging circuit and power module.
