The same day, one hundred years later, the riders in the ninety-seventh Tour de France ride the Luchon – Pau stage, again riding over the Col du Tourmalet. In the one hundred years that have passed, the Tour de France has included the Col du Tourmalet seventy-five times. It is the most frequented pass in the history of the Tour.
