After several years working as a presenter and interviewer for BBC Radio 4, Vernon's first travelogue series was Fat Man On A Bicycle. As the title implied, Vernon was obese and the first episode followed the health tests he had to undergo before setting off on his journey, which took him from Muswell Hill to the Mediterranean coast of southern France. He would repeat this journey fifteen years later for the TV series, Fat Man in France.

Mr. William Virgin, the cyclist who rode into Melbourne from Perth on Saturday, is a fitting successor on the journey to Mr. William Snell, holder of the Coolgardie to Melbourne record. Mr. Snell wanted to visit his people in the Western district of Victoria, and, instead of worrying about trains and boats he jumped on his bicycle and rode across at the rate of nearly 100 miles a day.
