Selected
climb, official finish (line) of the climb, summit
It seems to me that the first definition below is more appropriate here (how can you ride to a standing in only one climb?), and from the structure of the sentence it sounds like what it actually means is the finish of the officially designated climb or the summit.
Bergwertung
1) Anstieg oder Gipfel, auf dem Punkte für das Trikot des besten Bergfahrers vergeben werden. Kann auf der Strecke liegen oder, bei Bergankünften, im Ziel. (s. auch Kategorien)
2) Wertung, in der alle Bergpunkte eines Fahrers zusammengezählt werden. Der Fahrer mit den meisten Punkten trägt das Bergtrikot.
