Ben Swift has had a rollercoaster season in 2015 after his strong start was abruptly brought to a halt when he crashed and broke his collarbone on the opening stage of the Tour de Yorkshire in the first weekend of May. The injury meant a long lay-off until he returned to racing in RideLondon at the beginning of August.
Since then, he has notched up 19 more days of racing in an attempt to bring him into form for the World Championships. With Mark Cavendish and Geraint Thomas out of the team, Great Britain may look to Swift if it comes to a sprint. Cyclingnews caught up with the Yorkshireman to get his thoughts ahead of the World Championships.
Cyclingnews: It's been a pretty busy time for you, how are you feeling?

Ben Swift: Yeah, it's been a little bit strange actually. When you're coming back from an injury you're always chasing and you just never quite relax and recover properly so it'll be nice to get this race out of the way and recover for a bit.
CN: You were out for a while, how challenging is it spending so long away from racing?
BS: It is really difficult especially when you're out for two months.
