There are a few sure signs that spring is just around the corner: the first sightings of daffodils, the evenings getting lighter and the doors opening on the Caravan, Camping and Motorhome Show at the NEC in Birmingham. 

Whether you’ve already booked your pitch and are bubbling with anticipation or you’re considering trying it for the first time, the National Feast of Lanterns (NFOL) is a camping rally like no other. But why should you go to NFOL and if you are already going, what is there to do there? Hopefully here you’ll find some answers and inspiration.
 

The hypnotic whir of pedals and gears turning, the blur of multi-coloured lycra flashing through the countryside, the thrill of being up-close and personal with top professional athletes – cycling has a lot to offer as a spectator sport. 

We’ve all been there. As January rears its ugly head, thousands of us up and down the country resolve to be healthier, to get fitter or to do more exercise. And when this urge comes around, one of the sports many of us turn to is running.
