Dynamo basics, and not so basics here:
Bicycle Dynamos

Some circuits here
Dynamo LED Light Systems for Bicycles (electronic circuits)
There has been a small drop in LED Vf since Martin did these charts so equivalent speeds will be a bit less.

Will deliver 500mA into an LED, or string of LEDs. You need to go faster to make more LEDs light up.
Without some smoothing the LEDs will blink annoyingly.
