Roma–Napoli–Roma (English: Rome–Naples–Rome) was a road cyle race held from 1902 until 1961. The race has had different names during its history: Corsa del XX Settembre (Race of 20 September) from 1919 to 1927, as it was raced in September, and Gran Premio Ciclomotoristico during its final six editions from 1955 to 1961. The post-World War II editions of the event were held in late April or early May.

Italian Fernandino Grammel was the winner of the inaugural edition. Costante Girardengo holds the record with five wins in the 1920s.
