Francesco Reda (born 19 November 1982) is an Italian professional road bicycle racer, who is currently suspended from the sport, after testing positive for erythropoietin (EPO).

Doping

In 2013, Cosenza-born Reda rode for UCI Professional Continental Team , when he was banned after evading a doping test. His ban was reduced after he gave evidence to the Cycling Independent Reform Commission. On 15 July 2015, it was announced that Reda had tested positive for erythropoietin (EPO) after the Italian National Road Race Championships, which he finished second. In February 2016, Reda was banned for eight years.
