Nigel Pogmore was brought up in Yorkshire and has always had a severe case of wanderlust. His first adventure was a motorcycling touring expedition around England; he then set his sights further field.

His first solo international jaunt was from (1976) York to Istanbul, covering eight thousand kilometer return trip in just three weeks (on his 750 Honda). His fate was then sealed, life was never to be the same, he gave up his job (as a bus driver) in York and started training with a London based long haul overland company, Encounter Overland, who specialise in Asia, Africa, and South America expeditions.
