Thousands Set for National Bike Ride Honouring Hairy Biker Dave Myers
Plans for a nationwide motorbike ride to celebrate Dave Myers, the beloved Hairy Biker, have sparked a phenomenal response. Fans and riders from across the UK are gearing up for the June 8 event, which will see thousands journeying from London to Barrow in tribute to the TV chef’s life and legacy.
Organisers Overwhelmed by Support
Woody, the ride’s lead organiser appointed by Myers’ wife Liliana and Hairy Bikers co-star Si King, praised the flood of enthusiasm. “The outpouring of love for Dave, Si, and Lily has been absolutely amazing,” he said. But with registrations soaring, Woody urged fans to be patient while final logistics are locked down.
“The numbers are phenomenal,” he added. “We expected a good turnout, but this has blown us all away.” Details such as the exact starting point are still being confirmed based on participant numbers. Safety remains paramount, with carefully planned routes and stops to accommodate riders and supporters alike.
Community Backing and Rider Registration
Local teams in Barrow are pulling out all the stops to make the day unforgettable. Woody hailed the collaborative spirit behind the scenes, saying, “What they are creating is going to be amazing.” Venues and residents have shown huge enthusiasm to support the celebration.
Riders eager to take part are encouraged to register their interest via the official Facebook group’s events tab. This helps organisers estimate turnout and plan accordingly.
A Lasting Legacy for Dave Myers
Woody envisions the ride as more than just a tribute. “Having a Dave day will mean sharing moments of joy and camaraderie,” he said. The event promises to honour Dave Myers’ enduring impact on fans across the country and celebrate his extraordinary contributions to cooking and TV culture.
