Matthew,

Dave Marsh at Universal Cycle Centre (http://universalcyclecentre.co.uk/) was posting a lot of the Ciclolinea tape on eBay last year. There was a yellow, but the last time I was in a NYC cab was quite a few years ago and I was too worried whether the cabbie was going to kill us while listening to the Reverend Ike at full volume (swear he drove on the sidewalks), so the exact shade of yellow escaped me. I considered shelling out for one of Ike's prayer cloths on the spot.
