The one-day race Paris – Roubaix 1904 was the ninth edition of the cycling classic and took place on Sunday, April 3, 1904.
The race went from Chatou over 268 kilometers. The previously customary guided tour by pacemakers was prohibited from this date on . 64 cyclists started, 42 of whom were able to place. The winner Hippolyte Aucouturier , who had already won the race the year before, completed the race at an average speed of 32.518 kilometers per hour . There was a tail wind and it was raining as we drove over the cobblestone stretches .
Aucouturier and César Garin reached the Vélodrome roubaisien together, and Aucouturier won the race in the finish sprint in front of empty ranks, as the drivers had arrived an hour earlier than predicted due to the tailwind and the spectators were still at the table. Édouard Wattelier and Léon Georget fell while driving on the train.
