Dave Myers’s RIP

FLYING BANANA · 29th February 2024, 09:37

Dave Myers, one half of TV cooking duo The Hairy Bikers, has died at the age of 66, two years after revealing he had been diagnosed with cancer.
Myers, from Barrow-in-Furness, found fame alongside Si King 20 years ago.
The bearded pair were known for travelling around the UK and the world on their motorbikes, sampling and cooking food from different regions.
King said he "will miss him every day and the bond and friendship we shared over half a lifetime".

Tragic loss.

Shall always have fabulous memories of seeing "the duo" in Newcastle.

As has been said - Ride free and rest in peace.

Andy.

I thought he was on the mend, obviously not. Will miss him, love watching the Hairy Bikers. Thoughts are with his family and friends, especially Si King.

Not a dry eye in the house tonight with the last in the series. Some of the phrases used and the looks and actions said it all.

The BSAs ? looked fine, yet the absence of oil drips also said it all!

I was BSAbarmy on a previous forum! Ride on brother. Don't forget to give me the "nod" as we pass each other.
