Can anyone help me please to identify the three day route used in 1910 for the inaugural inclusion of the Pyrenees in the 1910 TDF? I know the route comprised Perpignan to Luchon on the first day, a rest day in Luchon and then the third day Luchon to Bayonne.
I am trying to identify the roads and mountains ridden that year

Depending on how good your French is, this may help:

It says that during the Perpignan to Luchon stage, they crossed the cols de Peyresourde, d' Aspin, du Tourmalet et de l'Aubisque. You could probably join the dots on that one. It is not so specific about Luchon to Bayonne.
the official tour de France archive site also names: col de Porte, au Portet d'Aspet prior to the Peyresourde.0 -
