Hairy Bikers’ Dave Myers left in tears after major milestone amid cancer battle
HAIRY Bikers’ Dave Myers broke down in tears after he celebrated a huge milestone following his battle with cancer.
Dave, who revealed his diagnosis in May last year, gave a health update in April, saying: “It’s a work in progress but I’ve got my hair back.
The iconic biker appears to have recovered from chemotherapy and is returning to the big screen.
“It’s been hard, but I’m not the only one,” he told The Yorkshire Post. “And I’m getting through it, and I’m back at work.”
Dave is so happy to be back doing what he loves that he burst into tears from delight.
Speaking about his excitement to be back on the telly, Dave said: “I had to relearn how to ride my bike and how to walk. And it brought tears to both of our eyes to get back on my bike with Kingy in the sunshine.”
The much-loved pair will make a comeback to television later this year in the series “The Hairy Bikers Go West”.
The new show will see them explore the gastronomic delights of the west coast while pedalling their bikes along a beautiful route from Scotland to Devon.
Dave spoke about his struggle with “brutal” chemotherapy back in March this year.
He said: “I’m still having it. I lost so much weight, then it’s a battle to get your calories in.
“Now I’ve got to the point where I’m at the weight I want to be, and I want to maintain it.”
Dave lost his hair during chemotherapy, which he described as “brutal”.
