Last updated : 19 September 2014 By Covsupport News Service

Ben Swift has signed a new deal with Team Sky.

The Yorkshireman joined Team Sky in 2010 and has had eleven victories and speaking about his new contract which lasts until the end of the 2016 season, Swift told his team's website:  “I’ve been with Team Sky since the start and five years on it really does feel like home. To keep that relationship going was really important so I’m delighted to be staying for another two years. I already have one eye on next season and with this team I know I can deliver some good results.
 
“I really do feel part of the foundations of this team, having grown up with so many of the riders and staff. I’ve known many of them since the start of my career and have been guided by the likes of Sir Dave Brailsford and Rod Ellingworth for years, which has made me the rider I am today.
 
“With the team’s support I’ve been able to grow and develop as a rider and by staying here I know that will continue.”
