TV favourite Dave revealed the news of his diagnosis in May 2022 and has been updating his fans since.
Speaking on the podcast The Hairy Bikers – Agony Uncles, Dave said: "I've got to come clean now, I haven't been too well recently and basically, I've got to have some chemo, you [Si King] know all this anyway.
"So this year is going to be a bit quiet for me, I'm not going to be filming, some of the festivals I'm not going to be able to go to, some may be OK, but this year's a bit of a write off for us.
"I have had to speak up about this because I don't want to hide under a rock, but I would love it if people respected my privacy and just let me get on with it and give Si and our team all the support they need. That would be great.
"But look, the prognosis is OK. I'm going to be fine."
In a further update last month, he added: "It's funny when you first start chemotherapy, it's quite hard – I'm still having it, it was really brutal.
"I lost so much weight and then it's a battle to get your calories in."
