The 1913 Tour de France was the 11th Tour de France, taking place June 29 to July 27, 1913. The total distance was 5,388 km and the average speed of the riders was 26.715 km/h. The individual competition was won by the Belgian Philippe Thys, the team competition by Peugeot. Between 1904 and 1912, the overall classification was calculated by points, but in 1913 the classification was reverted to the original format from 1903, where the overall classification was calculated by adding up the times of the individual stages. It has been that format ever since.
