When lifelong motorcycle racer Carlin Dunne was a child, his grandfather gave him a plain red bandana handkerchief. As he started racing competitively at around 11 years old, he tucked the handkerchief into his leathers for every event. Over his career, he won the Baja 500 motorsport race twice and set multiple world speed records. Twenty-five years later, Dunne had carried the bandana through a mountain biking career, three world records and four victories at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, the second oldest motorsport race in the country (behind the Indianapolis 500) that ends at the summit of the 14,115-foot Colorado mountain.
