Could be some kind of new "cycling gang" ;)
I'd steer clear of them if I were you...

Should we start our own gang? what color are we going to claim? Yellow and white?

my guess is that it's for visibility. you saw them so it must work. so i must be right. :)
i use one, but it's that neon green color and i tie it onto my backpack.
but it could be a type of gang, probably one of those puegot hold-outs from the 80's. very dangerous folks ;)

I don't know about the visiblity thing, it was on a 'Rails-to-Trails' bikepath, not much cross-traffic there. Seems that most of them had red or blue bandannas.
Went out this afternoon, didn't see any bandanna-toting cyclists on the same bike path.
Either way, I don't think I'm going to be hanging a bandanna off my backside anytime soon....

I can't speak for those particular folks, but I generally carry a bandana when I am cycleing to wipe the salt and sweat off my fact and/or blow my nose!

I bet they are just gentleman, ready, at a moments notice, to offer a hanky to a lady in need. However, TBRAV is probably right ..... pirates!

Silly boy- they are playing flag bicycle. As you pass, grab the flag and bike like hell.

We could totally combine those ideas.
The Trifuel gang could be yellow and white... and we'd play flag bicycle and tag-team chicken with them. We could go on demo tours and stuff. Cervelo would sponsor us and give us all P3s.

Waaay back when I was in high school, my buddy and I invented a game we called "bicycle polo," but not what you think!
We played on an open grass field riding our ten-speed road bikes. The difference was this: it was one on one, played with a bat of your own choosing. You scored by hitting the other guy, or his bike, with the tennis ball!
I'll tell you it sure improves your balance and bike-handling skills!

Maybe they 're using their bandannas to wipe something else besides their foreheads.

Actually, I think it means that they're bi-cylists.
What about tri-athletes, though? :confused:

They are just expressing thier male figure in wearing more clothing and using the bandana to signify that they want to be n the bicycle and are protesting against all the people who wear bandanas on their head because they dont want the sweat in their eyes...wel these guys are saying that they want the sweat to go intheir eyes...but not on that one patch of their quad...i think its becaue they all cut themselves in the same spot and they are to much a pansy to get sweat in that cut...but then again..they could be like the fat people who sue McDonalds for being fat...and sue the razor company for cuting them...they would prolly win too...the razor was to sharpp

I don't have any insight, but if you take the original post and replace bandana with banana it is much more entertaining:

Color me stupid or something, but over the last two weeks, I must have seen a dozen or more male cyclists wearing a banana tucked into the left side of their cycling shorts.
Any idea what the signifigance is? Not that I'm going to start wearing a banana flapping inthe breeze. My goal is to think and be Aero!
