Constant Huret (born January 26, 1870 in Ressons-le-Long , † September 18, 1951 in Paris ) was a French cyclist .
Before his career as a cyclist, Constant Huret first learned the trade of a baker, which earned him the nickname le Boulanger as a racing driver ; later it was called le grand Constant . In 1893, at the age of 23, he turned professional .
Huret won the first 24-hour race on German soil, which was held in September 1898 on the Berlin-Halensee cycle track. In 1899 Huret won the Bordeaux – Paris race at a time that could not be beaten for 34 years. The following year he was stayer world champion. He won the Bol d'Or 24-hour race in Paris four times . He also set several world records. In 1902, Huret had a training accident at the Parc des Princes cycling track in Paris when he collided with driver Jimmy Michael and suffered a severe lower leg injury (broken debris). As a result, Huret had to give up active cycling.
After the end of his cycling career, Constant Huret married - apparently in his second marriage - a woman 28 years his junior and had three children. He settled in Paris, rented cars and worked as a chauffeur. He died at the age of 81.
Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec painted Huret for his advertising poster “La Chaîne Simpson”.
