The Ronde van Nederland is a road bicycle racing stage-race in the Netherlands, founded in 1948. It's an annual race since 1975. Because of the start of the UCI ProTour in 2005, it was replaced by the Eneco Tour.

The first edition started on May 6, from Dam Square, Amsterdam. The riders finished on May 15, nine days later, in the Olympisch Stadion.
