How do cycling tours work and how do they decide the overall winner?
The overall winner is the overall fastest on averagethrough the race. This rider will have the lowest aggregate time through the entire race. The implication here is that a rider doesn't have to win that many stages to be the overall winner of the race. It's enough if a rider is consistently near the top of each stage, and that the stage winners are further back in other stages. Cyclist Greg Lemond once won a Tour without ever winning a stage in the race.

Who gets the yellow yersey in the tour de France?
The one with the overall shortest time.If the previous year's winner participates, he gets to wear it on the first stage of the new race as well.The yellow jersey indicates the race leader. The colour was picked up by the Tour's first sponsor, a newspaper which was printed on yellow paper.The rider that had the shortest overall time counted on finishing the previous stage(yesterday) gets to wear the yellow jersey that day.If the overall winner of the previous year's race is participating, he will ride the 1st stage in the yellow jersey. If he isn't there won't be a yellow jersey until stage 2.
What clothes do they have to wear in the tour de france?
The "daily" winner might not get to wear anything special at all.There's the Yellow Jersey, for the overall fastest, so if you win the first stage, you get that on stage 2. But the winner of stage 3 is not guaranteed to get the Yellow Jersey, unless his time is good enough to make him the overall fastest. etc etc.Then there's the green for sprints, and the polka-dot for climbs. but they're also awarded according to overall points.Means if you ride like a king one day after having really sucked for several stages, you still might not get enough points to be allowed to ride in a points Jersey the next day.Depends. There is no jersey for the winner of a stage, which is one day's racing.But if that win puts you in the overall lead, then you get to wear the yellow jersey the next day.
