The Tour de Qazox is a road-cycling race around the nation of Qazox. This gruelling 3-week race travels to most parts of Qazox, and sometimes into neighboring countries as well. The first 27 editions of the Tour were only open to Qazoxian Nationals, but in 1914, the race was fully open to all nations. Note that from 1919-1951, (Qazox timeline wise), the Tour was discontinued. Starting in 1954, the Tour will be held every 8 years (Qazox timeline wise).
