  2. Spencer Conway circumnavigated Africa by motorbike, solo and unsupported

    Posted on

    His new TV series premieres on Travel Channel, Sky and Virgin on the 8th of November in the UK and the 9th in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. This exceedingly grueling and dangerous adventure is dramatically captured on film by Spencer, often in challenging and sometimes, life-threatening situations. It is both raw and gritty and makes for dramatic viewing.

    On a Yamaha Tenere, he raised over £30,000 for Save the Children. 

    Information about Spencer can be found on his website. Richard E Grant is his Patron.
