Date23 July 1924
StatusOlympic
LocationStade Olympique de Colombes, Colombes
Participants60 from 15 countries
Format188 kilometre time trial. Four-man teams with fastest three times to count towards the team result.

While course reconnaissance is fairly common for time trials nowadays, it was rare in 1924, giving a huge advantage to the French riders, who had trained on the course nearly daily in the months prior to the Games. The training paid off, with the four French riders finishing 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 9th. The winner of the individual road race, Armand Blanchonnet, won that race by almost 10 minutes and was so dominant that it would have been difficult for any other team to overcome that margin. But with the other French cyclists finishing in the top 10, France won the gold medal by over 16 minutes, with Sweden 29 minutes back in 3rd place.
