The Duke Road Race Rankings for 2012 will begin with the Ian Watson Spring National Road Races, at Olivers Mount in Scarborough on Sunday, April 15.
The eleventh year of the series will feature 26 meetings, including the TT, Southern 100 and Manx Grand Prix.
By far the most succesful rider is Ryan Farquhar who has won the prize six times, but Peter Duke believes the Dunlop brothers are in a position to challenge strongly this year:
Triathlon: Trials to be held for 2027 Island Games squad
Shooting: Bellhouse impresses during wintry league round
Football: Union Mills seeking more players for women's team
Golf: 'Amazing' to earn full Ladies European Tour card, says Dawson
