He has been sentenced to 12 years in prison by a court in Finland.
The deadly fight took place in a flat in Seinajoki, western Finland, on July 29, last year, reports Finnish newspaper Iltalehti.
A court heard how the elderly victim invited the cyclist back to his home after the pair met at a spa a day earlier.
The Brit was bought a phone by his new friend as they made their way back to the flat, according to local reports.
He later told investigators the pensioner said he “owed him a favour” after opening up the present.
The cyclist refused but claimed he believed the man was referring to sexual acts.
South Ostrobothnia District Court was then told the Brit took a short nap but when he woke up he “was tied up with bandages” and “couldn’t move properly”.
The Brit alleged he was raped on the bed after waking up.
