The Hairy Bikers' Si King gives health update on Dave Myers as he battles cancer

Hairy Biker Si King has reassured fans with an update on Dave Myers’ health after the star revealed that he had been diagnosed with cancer earlier this year.

Cumbrian -born Dave announced back in May that he was undergoing chemotherapy treatment following his diagnosis. “I haven't been too well recently and basically, I've got to have some chemo,” he said on the pair’s Agony Uncles podcast.

Dave went on: “This year is going to be a bit quiet for me, I’m not going to be filming, some of the festivals I'm not going to be able to go to, some may be okay but this year's a bit of a write off for us.” He also appealed to fans to respect his and his family’s privacy and to “just let me get on with it”.
