Former Bradford cyclist Damien Sharp has been banned for two years after testing positive for the blood-boosting agent EPO.
Sharp was living in Bermuda when he tested positive after an event there in July.
The 36-year-old, a Bradford resident before moving to the Caribbean island, waived his right to a hearing and accepted the ban.
UK Anti-Doping chief executive Andy Parkinson said: “Through the collaborative work of three national anti-doping organisations, the Bermuda Sport Anti-Doping Agency has successfully handed a two-year sanction to this athlete.”
The US Anti-Doping Agency was also involved in the testing procedure.
