Jean Dargaties known as Jean Dargassies (born Grisolles Tarn-et-Garonne France 15 July 1872 died Grisolles 7 August 1965) was a French racing cyclist who rode the first Tour de France because the man who sold him a bike told him he ought to. He rode it three times coming 11th in 1903 and fourth in 1904. In 1905 he was part of Henri Pepin’s experimental team that ‘voyaged’ rather than ‘raced’ its way around France.
