The Netherlands is a leading cycling nation. In no other country do people cycle as much as they do in the Netherlands. But Tour de Force has ambitions. We aim to increase the number of kilometres cycled by 20 per cent in 2027.
Tour de Force has been actively promoting cycling from 2015. The initiative originated when preparations were underway for the start of the Tour de France in Utrecht. This also inspired the name ‘Tour de Force’. Cooperation in Tour de Force has resulted in national, regional and local government and the transport regions allocating additional funds for cycling initiatives. We have also launched a national Bicycle Agenda, focussing on nine objectives.
