By saying that the person with the yellow jersey in cycling is not always the one for continue monitoring at all stages of the race. Some stages of the Tour de France to incorporate some very difficult climbs, and who is the leader with this type of section race has its own shirt. Many times the person who runs on this mountain stage is called the king of the mountains, and be seen wearing a white polka-dot jersey read.
