I was travelling in the car listening to Karen Brady on Desert Island Discs talking about being a clever business woman and I thought… could I make a commercial business work ? I run a very successful charity – could I turn that skill to profit…
I live in Morecambe which has a small tourist trade and a flat and beautiful promenade and so approached a friend who has an arcade with the idea for a bike hire firm… We considered the options – scoped the competition and then came up with the name and asked a friend to make a logo …
I put in a great deal of effort over the next 2 years and managed to lose £3000! even though I took on grants from the council ! Oh well. Never try that again!
