Definately won't finish on Ventoux, I reckon Alp de Heuz but thats a guess. Having a weekend in Wales doing the dragon ride route a couple of times will be great experience. The climbs on it are more alpine (long and not too steep) then the climbs south of London (steep and short).
Loosing as much weight is also really important, I lost about 10kg and it made a massive difference on the hills, went from the back of the slow chain gang on hills to finishing in the group on fast chaingangs, just work on it and you'll get better.
