Francesco Guidolin: Swansea City boss' love of Wales and cycling

Francesco Guidolin is settling into life in south Wales following his appointment as Swansea City head coach in January.

The Italian has led the Swans to a win, two draws and a defeat in his four Premier League games to date.

And when he is not by the side of the pitch or on the training ground, Guidolin likes nothing more than a long ride on his bike - inspired by Wales' Olympic champion and Tour de France cyclist Geraint Thomas.

Sport Wales is on BBC Two Wales at 21:00GMT on Friday, 19 February - Sky channel 102 (Wales) or channel 971 (rest of the UK) - and available afterwards via the BBC iPlayer.
