Think you are doing it wrong mate, don't climb up, then get the lifts down.

The portes du Soliel Enduro route is supposed to be 80km you would have to be pretty slick with the lifts though.

Just back there is some great off piste stuff if you do your homework.

You may find people reluctant to respond due to the fact they will be in contravention of the very strict protectionist French Labour laws.

Perhaps best to ask if someone has an old inner tube for sale, but it after they've shown you round PDS.

You may already have done it, but as mentioned above the Pass'portes du soleil route is an 80km lift-assisted tour around and is a really good day out. It's mainly the orange 'shared use' trails but with the option at various points to do some shuttle runs up and down the bike part routes before carrying on to the next town.

You can download a pdf route and GPX files from the website, i'd suggest missing out the Torgon section at the northern tip. It's just a boring long climb followed by a very brief and forgettable run back down again.
