Analysis of wear yellow only

Markus Kiener 1960 (Regensdorf)



since I have seen Tour De France
I have seen Tour De Suisse
have seen Tour De Italia
seen Tour de Spain
since I have seen all bike races in the world
I know the meaning of yellow
yellow is the color of all colors
yellow is the color of the leaders
who wears yellow is a leader

my sweaters and my shirts are yellow
my shorts and my trousers are yellow
my jackets and my raincoats are yellow
my pajamas and my bedcap are yellow
my hat and my cap are yellow
my gloves and my socks are yellow
my boots and my shoes are yellow

you see, I’m a leader
day and night
day in – day out
