Stage 9 - Les Desjardins to Saint-Bellerose-des-Bois | Flat stage - 197 km
After the first rest day, the peloton restarted the second week of the race with a predictable stage which ended in a mass sprint.
Julius Magnusson (Anzcell Cycling) defeated Adwestene Kiel Albert Fyfe (Dido-GDC) and Keszarian Kárdas Nyíregyházi (NDM Cycling) to win the stage, the third for the Nylander team.
Stage 10 - Charbonneau to Mount Saint-Rousseau | ITT - 33 km
The stage 10th, a 33-km individual time-trial was expected to bring changes in the general classification, or at least reduce the differences between climbers and time-trial specialists.
Eskkyan Cóemgein McAlister (Ogo Cycling) won the stage. Nylander Blaise Brunschvicq (Télecon) was one of the best favourites, finishing 7th and reducing his difference with Bratansek -who remained leader of the general classification- to only fifty-four seconds. Ceribian Pharnavaz Undiladze (Bagdati), while falling to the third position, did a better time-trial than expected (or at least better than Bratansek) and reduced his difference to one minute and twelver seconds.
Stage 11 - Langlois to Beauchêne | Flat stage - 218 km
The next stage, which ended in mass sprint, gave Anzcell Cycling their fourth stage win in the 1596 Tour de Valland -the second for Chester Stenbeck, who also consolidated his lead in the points classification.
Keszarian sprinter Kárdas Nyíregyházi (NDM Cycling) was close again but failed to deliver a victory in the final metres ending second, while Galeaen Melker Rausing (Yetech-Druzhberg) ended third.
Stage 12 - Beauchêne to Saint-Bonfils | Flat stage - 173 km
Despite attempts at the breakaway, the next stage had a similar end, as it was decided again in a mass sprint. However, the final kilometres were rather chaotic, which impeded Anzcell Cycling riders to properly launch the sprint for their fifth stage win.
The winner of the race was instead Mordvanian sprinter Miroslav Gradishar (Iskra) who defeated in a close sprint to Ceribian Sergo Gvarjaladze (Badgdati) and Florinthian Quentin Symonds (Dido-GDC).
