It's based on the forum's URL:

Road cycling forum:

...bikeforums.net/forumdisplay.php/41-Road-Cycling..

Hence - 'the 41'.

Similarly, the racing forim goes by 'the 33', because that's part of the forum's URL.

But the Fifty+ forum:

...bikeforums.net/forumdisplay.php/220-Fifty-Plus

So we should be called "the 220"

I often wonder about that. I get that mirrors look 'dorky', so I use bar-end mirrors - which don't look quite as bad. I use them extensively in group rides - and the faster the ride, the more I need them.
