Luis Ricardo Villalobos Hernández (born 26 June 1998) is a Mexican cyclist,[2] provisionally suspended from the sport due to an adverse analytical finding (AAF) for GHRP-6 in 2019.

Villalobos joined EF Education First in July 2019,[3][4] after two-and-a-half seasons with the Aevolo team. He was provisionally suspended by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) and indefinitely suspended by EF Pro Cycling in May 2020 following an Adverse Analytical Finding (AAF), which suggested he had been doping during his time at Aevolo.[5][6][7]
