Biography

Robert "Bobby" Lea is an American track cyclist. At the 2008 Summer Olympics, he competed in the men's point race, which he did not finish, and the men's madison, where he finished in 16th place. At the 2012 Summer Olympics, he competed in the Men's Omnium.

Doping Case

After U.S. Track Nationals in 2015, Lea tested positive for noroxycodone, a metabolite of oxycodone found in Percocet which is a substance on the USADA banned list. Lea was given a 16-month suspension starting September 10, 2015. He pettitioned the suspension to the Court of Arbitration for Sport and On February 26, 2016 his suspension was reduced to 6-months. Lea responded to his initial suspension by posting on his private website:

"On the night of August 7th, in a state of post-race exhaustion and having run out of my normal sleep aid, I made the poor choice to take my prescription Percocet hoping it would help me rest."
