The 2.HC race will be held for a fifth year this season with Team Sky making its return to the race having missed the 2014 edition after claiming overall honours in 2013 via Edvald Boasson Hagen.

Nordhaug, who also won the opening stage of the Tour de Yorkshire, finished fourth on the opening stage of the race last year and third on stage 4 as he finished 18th on GC.

Joining Nordhaug for the race, which runs from May 20-25, is Andy Fenn and David Lopez, plus the Australian duo of Nathan Earle and Chris 'CJ' Sutton.
