Twelve riders started this motor-paced event. Arthur Chase led throughout and took a large early lead, passing 50 km in 50:59 and he was three laps ahead of Émile Bonhours at the one-hour mark. Chase led through 60 km in 1-01:26.6, 70 km in 1-12:10.0, and 80 km 1-22:42.0, but by 60 km Bouhours was starting a steady attack to gain back time. Chase went through 90 km in 1-34:11.4, still in the lead, but Bouhours caught him with 9 laps remaining, or at 95.5 km. Chase had enough left to hang on to Bouhours and ride with him to the final lap, when he managed to summon enough energy to win the final sprint, defeating Bouhours by only 4/10ths of a second. For winning, Chase won 2,000 francs, with Bouhours receiving 1,200 and third-place finisher Édouard Taylor, who was well back, 800 francs.
