Si King, one half of the beloved cooking and travel duo The Hairy Bikers, has recently shared that he has no plans to continue filming their popular series following the passing of his dear friend and co-star, Dave Myers. For two decades, Si and Dave have entertained audiences with their adventurous and entertaining combination of cooking and motorcycling travels, hosting over 30 TV series and specials together.
Sadly, in February of this year, Dave lost his battle with cancer at the age of 66. Now, a few months later, Si has opened up about the difficulty of moving on without his close friend by his side. In a recent interview with The Guardian, Si expressed that there is simply no Hairy Bikers without Dave, stating that it would not be respectful to continue the project without him.
Si also reflected on their long and successful working relationship, describing themselves as a "double act" and emphasizing that the show's title is plural because it represents the two of them. While Si expressed interest in continuing to work on TV programmes and cookbooks, he also shared his hopes that the Hairy Bikers fan base would continue to support his future endeavors.
In addition to his professional plans, Si also shared his devastation over the loss of Dave and the "cruel disease" that took his life too soon. In a poignant image shared on social media, Si and Dave were pictured together, with Si enjoying a bottle of Hairy Bikers beer that was recently released in supermarkets.
Fans were quick to notice the empty chair and extra bottle of beer next to Si, which many interpreted as a symbolic gesture in honor of Dave. The photo received an outpouring of supportive messages from fans, with many vowing to purchase a bottle in honor of Myers.
While Si has put on a brave face during public appearances, he has also acknowledged the strangeness of no longer having Dave by his side. In a heartfelt message to fans earlier this year, Si expressed his gratitude for their continued support and promised to keep in touch via the Hairy Bikers social media channels.
As we continue to cherish the memories and legacy of Dave Myers, Si King has reminded us of the unbreakable bond and friendship that he shared with his co-star. The Hairy Bikers may no longer grace our screens, but their impact and influence will never be forgotten.
