==Biography==
Born in Texas, Julich has resided in [[Glenwood Springs, Colorado]], since childhood, with a brief time in [[Philadelphia]], where he met his wife.<ref>[http://www.postindependent.com/article/20051119/VALLEYNEWS/111190032 Bobby Julich still calls Glenwood home] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160303172701/http://www.postindependent.com/article/20051119/VALLEYNEWS/111190032 |date=2016-03-03 }}, Post Independent, November 19, 2005</ref> Most of his living relatives reside in the New York area. Bobby Julich got his start in cycling winning the [[Red Zinger Mini Classics]] youth bicycle race in 1985.  As an amateur cyclist Bobby Julich won the 1990 Junior National [[Cyclo-cross|Cyclo-Cross]] Championship, and as a member of the US National Team he participated in the 1991 [[Tour DuPont]]. At the time it was the biggest stage race in the United States, and Julich finished 5th overall in a race which included fellow American cyclist and 3-time [[Tour de France]] winner [[Greg LeMond]]. Bobby won the award for the Best Young Rider and was heralded as the next LeMond.

After a few "false" starts as a professional, he joined the [[Motorola (cycling team)|Motorola]] team in 1995 alongside Italian rider [[Andrea Peron (cyclist, born 1971)|Andrea Peron]] and fellow Americans [[Lance Armstrong]] and [[George Hincapie]]. In the 1996 season, Bobby Julich was diagnosed with ''re-entrant [[supraventricular tachycardia]]'' (RSVT),<ref>[http://www.bobbyjulich.com/julich/?page_id=46 Re-entrant Supraventricular Tachycardia (RSVT)] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060619094607/http://www.bobbyjulich.com/julich/?page_id=46 |date=June 19, 2006 }}, at [http://www.bobbyjulich.com/ BobbyJulich.com] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070703063214/http://www.bobbyjulich.com/ |date=2007-07-03 }}</ref> a heart condition which meant his heart would beat much faster than normal. Julich was treated with [[radiofrequency ablation]] and was ready for the 1996 [[Vuelta a España]] late in the season, a race which showed the first glimpses of his potential in international professional cycling. There, Julich held the [[King of the Mountains]] jersey for ten stages. Despite a strong performance he relinquished the jersey but did finish 9th overall, the highest placing ever by an American in the Vuelta up until Lance Armstrong finished 4th overall in 1998. It was this performance that made other teams in the peloton take notice of Julich.

When Motorola ended its sponsorship at the end of the 1996 season he joined the French [[Cofidis (cycling team)|Cofidis]] team with a few fellow Motorola teammates, including Lance Armstrong. Armstrong's cancer meant that he was not able to compete with the team, while Julich went on to participate in the [[1997 Tour de France]]. He performed well in this Tour, getting stronger as it progressed taking two top 10s in late mountain stages including one where he finished only behind the podium finishers [[Richard Virenque]], [[Marco Pantani]] and [[Jan Ullrich]]. Then in the final ITT he placed 4th to finish the Tour in 17th overall.<ref>{{cite web |title=Bike Race Info |publisher=Bike Race Info |date=1997 |url=https://bikeraceinfo.com/tdf/tdf1997.html |access-date=2020-05-25 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200505112451/https://www.bikeraceinfo.com/tdf/tdf1997.html |archive-date=May 5, 2020 }}</ref>

The embattled [[1998 Tour de France]] was a breakthrough for Julich, when he took over the team leadership from Italian [[Francesco Casagrande]]. Following the [[doping (sport)|doping]] scandal of the 1998 Tour, only 96 of 189 riders completed the race, and Julich finished third on the podium with winner Pantani and runner-up Ullrich. Julich was hailed as the next American Tour de France champion and he was once more proclaimed to follow in the footsteps of Greg LeMond.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20010618012702/http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/cycling/1998/tourdefrance/news/1998/07/22/julich_lemond/ America's new LeMond], [[CNN/SI]], July 22, 1998</ref>  The [[1999 Tour de France]] saw Julich as one of the favorites for the overall win, but a crash during an [[individual time trial]] forced him to quit the race, which was in turn won by the recovered Lance Armstrong.

For the 2000 season, Julich moved to another French team [[Credit Agricole (cycling team)|Credit Agricole]], joining compatriot [[Jonathan Vaughters]].  He was part of the Credit Agricole team that won the [[team time trial]] stage of the [[2001 Tour de France]].  After a move to [[Team Telekom]] of Germany in 2002, Julich rode as a [[cycling domestique|domestique]] in support of his team captain Jan Ullrich. Julich only enjoyed lacklustre results, and at the end of the 2003 season he contemplated retiring.<ref name="dp">Cathy Mehl, [http://www.dailypeloton.com/displayarticle.asp?pk=8912 Interview with Bobby Julich] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080527171017/http://www.dailypeloton.com/displayarticle.asp?pk=8912 |date=2008-05-27 }}, ''DailyPeloton.com'', February 21, 2006</ref>

Despite an offer below his wages at Team Telekom,<ref name="dp"/> Bobby Julich moved to the Danish outfit Team CSC in the 2004 season, where he joined up with former Motorola teammate Andrea Peron. He once again rode as a supporting rider in the Tour de France, but with the freedom to pursue his own chances during the rest of the season. Julich immediately saw his riding and performance improve, as he won a time-trial in the April 2004 race [[Tour of the Basque Country]], his first victory since the 1998 season. With Team CSC teammate [[Jens Voigt]], a rider Julich rode with in his time at Credit Agricole, he also won the two-man time trial [[LuK Challenge]]. Bobby Julich won a silver medal in the [[2004 Summer Olympics]] men's [[Cycling at the 2004 Summer Olympics#Road cycling|individual time trial event]] behind Russian [[Viatcheslav Ekimov]].

Julich's renaissance continued in 2005 with his best-ever professional season, becoming the first American to win [[Paris–Nice]]. He also won the [[Critérium International]] and the [[Eneco Tour]], making Julich the [[UCI ProTour 2005#2005 ProTour Individual Rankings|8th ranked rider]] in the [[UCI ProTour]], helping Team CSC become the [[UCI ProTour 2005#2005 ProTour Team Rankings|highest ranked team]] of 2005.

For the 2006 season, Julich planned to conserve energy for helping Team CSC captain [[Ivan Basso]] in his winning bid for both the [[2006 Giro d'Italia]] in May and [[2006 Tour de France]] in July. Even though he did not start his season as strongly compared to 2005, he managed to finish 3rd at the [[Tour of California]] in February and he won the prologue of Paris–Nice in March, results that even positively surprised Julich himself.<ref name="cnmarch">Shane Stokes, [http://autobus.cyclingnews.com/riders/2006/interviews/?id=bobby_julich_mar06 Bobby's guide to staying strong], ''CyclingNews.com'', March 9, 2006</ref> For the very first Giro d'Italia participation in his career, Julich had early aspirations of conquering the pink jersey for the leader of the [[General classification in the Giro d'Italia|general classification]] early in the race to lessen the pressure on Basso.<ref name="cnmarch"/> However, Julich suffered heavily from [[pollen]] allergy throughout the race, and he did not play a major role himself, but focused on helping Ivan Basso, as Basso won the 2006 Giro. In the [[2006 Tour de France]], Julich abandoned the race after he suffered a crash on the stage 7 individual time trial. He went into a turn too fast, slid on small pebbles, and he severely injured his wrist when falling.<ref>Bobby Julich, [https://www.espn.com/olympics/tdf2006/news/story?id=2515505 I missed an opportunity of a lifetime, but I'll race again], [[ESPN]], July 10, 2006</ref>

In May 2011, [[Tyler Hamilton]], the winner of the men's time trial at the 2004 Summer Olympics, confessed that he had used doping products, and returned his gold medal. On August 10, 2012, Bobby Julich was upgraded from the bronze to the silver medal.

In May 2013, he joined [[BMC Racing Team]] as a consultant.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://velonews.competitor.com/2013/05/news/bmc-racing-team-hires-bobby-julich-as-a-consultant_286221 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130607190122/http://velonews.competitor.com/2013/05/news/bmc-racing-team-hires-bobby-julich-as-a-consultant_286221 |archive-date=2013-06-07 |title=BMC Racing Team hires Bobby Julich as a consultant}}</ref>  In November 2014, it was announced that Julich would join [[Tinkoff–Saxo]] as head coach, reuniting with Sean Yates (former sports director of [[Team Sky]]) and team founder and manager [[Bjarne Riis]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/news/latest-news/sean-yates-bobby-julich-head-tinkoff-saxo-2015-142479#DprEgPLV8hJT7PYg.99|title = Sean Yates and Bobby Julich head to Tinkoff-Saxo for 2015|date = 3 November 2014}}</ref>  Julich and Yates left after Riis's firing later in 2015.

==Doping==
On October 25, 2012, Julich admitted to "using EPO several times from August 1996 until July 1998" and resigned from the United Kingdom-based Team Sky.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.teamsky.com/article/0,27290,17553_8194069,00.html|title=Julich leaves Team Sky|publisher=Team Sky Pro Cycling|date=October 25, 2012|access-date=October 25, 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121028144514/http://www.teamsky.com/article/0%2C27290%2C17553_8194069%2C00.html|archive-date=October 28, 2012}}</ref> The team had issued a statement asking both riders and support staff to sign a document verifying that they did not use or administer performance-enhancing drugs during their careers. Julich stated that he wished to continue to be involved in the sport to some extent, and also that he would pay the consequences for his poor decisions.

Julich did his self-confession at CyclingNews.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/exclusive-bobby-julich-doping-confession|title=Exclusive: Bobby Julich doping confession|work=CyclingNews|date=October 25, 2012|access-date=October 25, 2012}}</ref> His open letter told that during the [[1998 Tour de France|Tour de France of 1998]] his fiancée (now wife) discovered his use from another rider's wife. She told him if it would reoccur, the relationship would be over. His name was also on the list of doping tests published by the [[French Senate]] on 24 July 2013 that were collected during the [[1998 Tour de France]] and found suspicious for [[Erythropoietin|EPO]] when retested in 2004.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/french-senate-releases-positive-epo-cases-from-1998-tour-de-france|title=French Senate releases positive EPO cases from 1998 Tour de France|date=24 July 2013}}</ref>
