Likewise, Nicola Juniper (Team Echelon - Rotor) will be looking to defend the Women's National Road Series title which begins at the Tour of the Reservoir in Edmundbyers in April and ends at the Ryedale GP, Ampleforth in July.
The 2014 National Road Series events attracted a TV audience of around 400,000 on British Eurosport, according to BC, while an increase in views on its website and Youtube channel demonstrated a rise in popularity for the domestic series last year.
"The appetite for top-level domestic racing has rarely been higher in this country" said British Cycling’s director of cycle sport and membership, Jonny Clay "and it is with great excitement that we confirm the dates for the 2015 British Cycling National Road Series."
“The 2015 season will again be broadcast on various platforms and we’re confident that the improvements we’re making to the domestic road calendar will continue to increase competition and conditions for riders, while also entertaining new and existing fans of the sport,” he added.
The Elite Circuit Series also returns for 2015, and will see the Stafford Grand Prix, which hasn't featured in the series since 2012. The circuit series will run weekly through July and August, moving across the country.
