The Hairy Bikers were a pair of English celebrity chefs comprising David Myers and Si King, whose television programmes combined cooking with motorcycling travelogue. Between 2004 and 2024, they hosted over 30 television series and specials for BBC One, BBC Two, Channel 5, and Good Food; they also wrote a number of tie-in cookbooks. Myers and King, who both had backgrounds in television production, had known each other since the 1990s. Their first appearance on UK television as presenters was The Hairy Bikers' Cookbook. Their other series include The Hairy Bikers' Food Tour of Britain, The Hairy Bikers' Asian Adventure, Hairy Bikers: Route 66, and The Hairy Bikers Go North. They also wrote 27 cookbooks, including eight diet books, and The Hairy Bikers Blood, Sweat and Tyres: The Autobiography. In May 2022, Myers revealed he had been diagnosed with cancer; whilst he received treatment, they made The Hairy Bikers Go Local and The Hairy Bikers: Coming Home for Christmas. Read more
