Mountain stages

Stage 7 - 2'05" down to winner and behind elite climbers
Stage 8 - 4'58" down to winner and behind elite climbers
Stage 10 - won. Down a ton to GCers and no threat. He breaks and
competes against non-elite climbers.
Stage 11 - 28'10" down to winner and behind peloton
Stage 12 - 11'29" down to winner and behind peloton
Stage 14 - 18'27" down to winner and behind peloton
Stage 16 - won. See stage 10.
Stage 17 - down 16'01" to winner and behind elite climbers. However,
went out and picked up the early mountain points. See, partly, stage 10.

Just interesting that he's KOM because the GCers and elite climbers
don't consider him an elite climber and thus, don't concern themselves
with him.
