Geraint Thomas: Olympic cycling champ 'inspires young'

Welsh cyclist Geraint Thomas is set to defend his Olympic title as he takes part in the team pursuit qualifiers later on Thursday.

It is hoped that part of the legacy of the Olympics will be encouraging the younger generation to get involved in sport.

Cyclists at the Maindy Flyers club in Cardiff tell BBC Wales how much an inspiration Thomas, who rode for the club until he was 16, has been to young riders.
