The Hairy Bikers: How did the TV chefs become friends?

“So we made it together, spiced roast pork with sticky rice, and it was really good.”

The duo first appeared on our screens in 2006 on the series The Hairy Bikers’ Cookbook, which combined their love of motorbikes with their love of food as they travelled across the UK as part of a food adventure.

After the success of their first series, The Hairy Bikers have since produced series set all around the world, including Asia and America.

Alongside their career on TV, Simon and David have also written more than 20 books together.
