The stage starts at Bagneres de Luchon and you can get a overnight sleeper train from Paris direct to Luchon. This will then give you the Col de Peyresourde, Aspin and Tourmalet. You could travel by eurostar from London to Paris.
Also if you choose to spend a few nights in Luchon before the big ride you have access to the Port du Bales, Col des Ares, Col de Mente and the Col du Portillon as warm up rides.0
