'''Dan Henry''' (born 1913) is a bicycling legend and inventor of directional pavement markings commonly used to guide participants along the route of organized [[bicycling]] events. The markers themselves are usually called "Dan Henrys".
[[Image:DanHenryArrows.jpg|right|thumb|200px|An example "Dan Henrys" for six different routes. All indicate the same direction of travel.]] Originally, the markings consisted of a circle with a vertical line from the edge of the circle pointing in the direction of travel (up, left, right). Other common markings are a circle X to denote wrong way, and a circled horizontal line to denote caution.
Variations on the circle pattern developed to differentiate between different rides as more and more rides began to use the same roads. Variations include color, triangles, squares, letters, etc.
