Hairy Bikers' Dave Myers gives cancer update after 30 bouts of chemotherapy

HAIRY Biker Dave Myers says his cancer is “going the right way” after 30 bouts of chemotherapy.

The TV cook revealed his diagnosis a year ago — but did not say what type of cancer he had.

Dave Myers, 65, said: “I’m doing all right. It’s a work in progress.

“I’ve had 30 lots of chemo over three weeks and then a week off. It’s going the right way.”

He told The Times doctors think radiotherapy will turn off the cancer.

He added: “That’s five sessions every other week.

“Then I film for two weeks, then go back on chemo — twice a month.”

Chemo stopped Dave riding for a time — but he and TV partner Si King are filming a trip from Scotland to Devon.

Si, 56, praised his buddy, saying: “He’s a scrapper. He’s a fighter.”

And Dave insists his hair is now better than it was before chemo.
