About us

Fergus Scholes has spent over 10 years writing on adventure and gear for HTSI, drawing on a career of high-endurance pursuits. His expeditions span rowing the Atlantic, ultra-running across the Atlas Mountains and Wadi Rum, cycling over 1,000km across Switzerland, and many other challenges. A father of three and relentless gear tester, he understands better than most how great equipment turns the impossible into the achievable - whether you’re out on a school run or deep in the wilderness.

In 2025, Fergus and Georgia Scholes launched Get in Gear with a mission to help modern families get outside and play more, supported by gear that works, lasts, and inspires adventure.
