The 1986 Paris–Roubaix was ridden on the 13th of April.
Cycling monument specialist Sean Kelly won his second Paris–Roubaix using his deadly finish to come out on top in the final. With four riders entered the velodrome in Roubaix, Ferdi Van Den Haute went for a long sprint. Kelly, having just finished second to Adri Van Der Poel in the Ronde van Vlaanderen, let the Dutch rider chase down Van Den Haute, before blazing by both Van Der Poel and Rudy Dhaenens for the win.
