< Stage 16 - Home - Stage 18 >
Only 65 kilometres but not a single one of them flat. It seems last year's experiment (the 101 km stage won by Warren Barguil) was enough of a succes to go for another shorty. Loads of riders will be cursing every step of the way.
This time the ASO has come up with a really crazy idea...
“At kilometre zero, riders shall be positioned in the same order as the general classification after the previous stage,” reads article 17.
“They shall be distributed into five different groups. The first 20 riders in the general classification shall be included in the first group in offset rows with the wearer of the yellow jersey in first place. Riders shall then position themselves freely in the other groups corresponding to their places in the general classification.”
The idea being that any helpers will be away from the GC riders so they will have to do it all themselves. The total grid is only 700 meters so they aren't super far behind but we do start uphill...
Winner: Nairo Quintana
The Romanesque Church Saint-Aventin dates from the 11th or 12th centuries, has two bell towers, a porch decorated with sculptures, and capitals showing scenes of the life and martyrdom of saint Aventin.
The exterior walls have incorporated stone from previous buildings that reuse of stelae and pagan altars dedicated to Pyrenean gods, including Abellio and Aherbelst. Inside the church are monumental paintings, a baptismal font and a wrought iron altar. The Church has been classified historical monument since 1840.

Thank you, but Steam tells me "The product code you've entered is not valid. Please double check to see if you've mistyped your key. I, L, and 1 can look alike, as can V and Y, and 0 and O." :(

That is very strange; I copied the key directly from the Yogscast Jingle Jam 2016 bundle and I checked; I did not make another giveaway for this game.
Are you sure you copied the entire key? For some reason the last character sometimes doesn't copy for me.
I checked the HumbleBundle page and copied the key again though it seems to be the exact same key so no mistake there.
Please try again.

Hmm, that's very strange indeed. Here is a screenshot of when I try to activate it. The one on the left is via the "Redeem" button directly on SteamGifts, which leads me to the Steam website and the right one is directly within Steam, where I copied the key.
If you don't mind the trouble you could contact HumbleBundle, else I'm completely fine with you deleting this GA ;)

That is so strange...
I'll try Humble Support but considering the recent experiences other people here have had I'm pretty sure they will claim I'm a "key reseller" as to them giving keys away is the exact same thing.
Anyway, if it works I'll get you the new key and if not I'll ask for deletion, thanks!
(Real shame this Tour page will be gone if there needs to be a deletion.)

To my infinite surprise they've sent a new key!
I've changed the key on here to the new one; please try and activate it.
Thanks!
