The DO Lectures is an ideas sharing event started in 2007 and run out of an old cowshed in Cardigan Bay, Wales. In Season 3 of the DO podcasts, entitled 'Dot Dot Dot', Gav Thompson chats to old DO Lectures speakers about how their story has changed or grown and evolved since they gave their original DO Lecture.
In the third episode of 'Dot Dot Dot' Gav talks to Claire Elsdon. Claire was a stockbroker in London. And then one day she packed it all in, climbed on her motorbike and started riding from London to Cape Town. On her own.
Along the way she had many adventures, but also saw first hand some of the problems, and opportunities, of motorbikes in Africa. She ended up setting up her own social enterprise in Tanzania, Pikilily, which trains women how to safely ride and maintain motorbikes, thus opening up a whole range of possibilities for the women and their communities.
