It's a long distance bicycle trail that coincides with the Camino Frances for a little while in the area of Castilla y Leon near Burgos.
Big triangle is indicating to go straight on but I'm sure everybody got the message

: the red colour means that the trail is longer than 100 km and the letters IMBA mean International Mountain Bicycling Association.
OK, the "spear" of the triangle indicates the direction. In this case it is straight. If the spear would be to the right/lefthand side you know the answer now
Or is it:
Not falling off, it means that on both routes one must cycling just on the front wheelOr is it:
Biker falling off bike to the right on trail 9 and biker falling off bike to the left on trail 10.

You mean that there are now dedicated unicycle routes? If you ride a unicycle to Santiago do you have to do a minimum of 200km like bicyclists to get a Compostela, or is that halved to 100km?Not falling off, it means that on both routes one must cycling just on the front wheel
Indeed. And this year by a man who unicycled 5000+km over 75 days - all the way from Norway.

Oooooohhhhhh! Now my brain hurts!! And next you are going to tell us that a tricycle is a bicycle too?

It was meant that the spear of the triangle is indicating the direction and not the big circle as posted by @Kathar1na It was her typo because there are no 1 big and 2 small circles on the signNot me
Do riders of a tandem have to cycle 200km each - a total of 400km? Or are they both deemed to have ridden their own 200km independently and concurrently? And what would be demanded from this bunch? 
It's not intuitive I think. Although we figured it out at the time - the bike trail joins, follows and leaves the Camino Frances over quite a short stretch of the road and you can see all three variations of the sign - and I now know what the signs mean, what I still "see" is what I saw at first: a happy little red car rolling along the road, in the same direction or the opposite direction to this one:

There are velociraptors and centipedes in the animal kingdom but the velocipede is a human invention dating back to 1817. There is a modern version, electro-assisted and developed at Saarland University in Germany. The photo shows the velocipede model Draisine 200.0 with the professor who designed it and his student team. No pedalling and it is surely more like walking than riding a horse. Is 100 km sufficient for a Compostela? Or perhaps a compromise: 150 km?
