    Dave Myers death: The enduring legacy of the Hairy Bikers

    David “Dave” Myers, one half of the Hairy Bikers, has died aged 66, according to according to a statement on social media from his co-star Simon “Si” King.

    The two have been cooking together, writing recipes and filming TV shows since their 2004 debut, The Hairy Bikers’ Cookbook.

    Dave Myers 'a lovely man' who put Cumbria and Barrow on the map

    Graham Twyford

    TV presenter and ledare Dave Myers, one half of the Hairy Bikers along with Si King, died from cancer aged 66 on Wednesday. Friends and former neighbours have paid tribute to a "natural comic" who never forgot his roots and put Cumbria on the map.

    In Barrow-in-Furness, where Myers was born and raised, and where he lived for many years, he is remembered as a "lovely man" who always talked up his home town.

    He had many enduring friendships, including with artist Graham Twyford, whom he met at Barrow Grammar school in 1973.

    Mr Twyford first met Myers when he sat down next to him in an empty seat in the dining hall.

    "Me and another friend, Pete Thompson, rolled up to the dining hall and there's only a couple of seats left, right next to the bald lad," he recalls.

    "Most other boys sported long Cavalier locks, so he rather stood out.
