Hairy Biker Dave Myers praises Si King for support in promising health update amid cancer battle

Hairy Biker Dave Myers has given an update on his health after revealing that he had been diagnosed with cancer and was undergoing chemotherapy earlier this year .

The Cumbrian -born star, 64, announced the news on the Agony Uncles podcast back in May, telling listeners that the year would be “a bit of a write off” as he underwent treatment. During the chat with fellow Hairy Biker Si King, Dave reassured fans that his prognosis was “okay” and that he was “going to be fine” as he appealed to fans to respect his and his family’s privacy.

In August , 55-year-old Si gave the audience at Bolton Food and Drink Festival the promising news that Dave was “getting there” with his treatment after he couldn’t make it to the festival. Thanking fans for their messages of support, County Durham star Si added: “He's doing canny, but as you appreciate he's right in the trenches of it all at the minute - but he's getting there, thank God.”
