From WikiPedalia

Dan Henry was a very influential cyclist in the 1950s and 1960s. He is most famous for the "Dan Henry Arrow" an arrow painted on the roadway with a stencil. brush or spray can, as a way of giving directions for organized rides. Many recreational bike clubs use Dan Henry arrows to mark their recommended routes.

He did a lot of pioneering work on suspension designs for bicycles, and developed a bicycle seat that was based on an upside-down dropped handlebar with furniture webbing wrapped between the two straight sections.

He was also known for roller demonstrations where he would perform a strip-tease (down to his shorts), then put all his clothes back on again while riding on the rollers. A very cool guy.
