The 2020 Prudential RideLondon was among the casualties to this year’s schedule due to the coronavirus pandemic.
However, it is set to return on the last Sunday in May next year, with the 2021 WorldTour featuring 25 events in 10 countries.

It will begin in Australia at the end of January with the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race and draw to a close in China with the Tour of Guangxi in October.
Paris-Roubaix, making its first appearance later this year, will feature once more, while there is set to be a mid-season block of Spanish events.
The Itzulia Women (formerly the Donostia San Sebastian) will be a three-day stage race and takes place a few days before another new arrival, the Vuelta a Burgos Feminas.
The UCI also confirmed the cancellation of the Boels Ladies Tour in the Netherlands, which should have taken place on September 1-6 this year.
