I did a week of riding round that way in September last year, last few days were in and around Malaucene . Although I only went up Ventoux on one of the days and it wasn't combined with anything else, I'll DM you a link to my Strava and if you look at the rides in the last few days of that week you'll be able to see a few that you can combine bits of. Other than Ventoux itself, the riding round there is as you probably know absolutely amazing, Gorge de la Nesque is a must.

Here's the Gorge de la Nesque which is a must do IMO. A beautiful ride along a beautiful gorge with tunnels carved out of the rock, it's a classic. Start & finish in Bedoin.

Does anyone have any experience riding around the southern Drome region in France? Heading there for a week soon, hiring a bike for 4 days. Ventoux is on the list, but some rides a bit more local to there would be good.
Second request, has anyone got any shortish routes, 60k-ish, that include Ventoux? I'm in half decent nick at the moment but parenting for the past two years has meant my long ride stamina has disappeared so don't really want to attempt 100k involving a mountain that big and die on my arse and have to call in the cavalry to rescue me, as the cavalry will be my wife and kid in a hire car with no bike rack...
