Evert "Eef" Gerardus Dolman (22 February 1946 12 May 1993) was a Dutch racing cyclist, who won the gold medal in the 100 km team trial at the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan, alongside Gerben Karstens, Bart Zoet, and Jan Pieterse.[1] He became Dutch champion in 1967 and 1968, but was later stripped of his 1967 title because of doping.[2][3]

He said in an interview with the Dutch magazine Wielerrevue that his racing career had been undermined by drug-taking and what he described as the witch-hunt conducted in the first years of drug-testing in the 1960s.[2]
