Tjejtrampet was a special bicycle race held every year in Sweden. The name "Tjejtrampet" comes from Swedish, where "tjej" means "girl." So, this race was just for girls and women! It was a road bicycle racing event, which means cyclists raced on regular roads. The races usually happened in late May or early June, from 1990 until 2009. The very first Tjejtrampet race took place on May 13, 1990, and the winner was Marianne Berglund.

In 2006, the race moved from the big city of Stockholm to another Swedish city called Västerås.
