Get well soon, marcab :)
I’m sure most of you know marcab from the forums. Marc is a good friend of mine and other members of this forum. We just spent the last two seasons in Whistler together and lots of good times were had. I was stoked to catch up with him in Whistler just the other day. Marc is seriously an awesome dude, always fun to be around and just an all-round top bloke. You can check out some of Marc’s awesome photos here: http://marcabbott.tumblr.com/
Marc stayed on in Whistler for the summer, living with his girlfriend and Finney. Marc had an unfortunate accident early in the summer in the bike park. He broke his wrist and had a plate put in to repair the damage.
Nearing a full recovery from that injury, he had another serious accident yesterday, this time involving an ATV while working. He damaged the same arm quite badly and I can only imagine how traumatic this must have been. I received a call yesterday evening from his girlfriend, Meg, and she told me what happend. Marc was about to go into surgery when she called.
I just got off the phone to Marc this morning and it sounds like the surgery went well, although there is obviously a long road to recovery. He was in good spirits considering what he went through yesterday.
I just wanted to start this thread so you can leave your well wishes for Marc. I thought it would be a nice thread for him to read through, to cheer him up when he’s feeling up to it. Leave comments, jokes, funny photos, whatever…
Marc, hope you’re feeling a bit better by the time you read this. As the old saying goes, “what doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger.” What a story this will be for the grandkids! Keep you chin up, buddy. Watch lots of shredding DVDs. Watch heaps of funny TV shows and movies - laughing is good for the soul. Try to focus on the countless fun times you’ve had the last couple of seasons - and look forward to many more that we’re sure to have in the future. You’ll be back doing what you love before you know it.
Just looking at your Facebook, Marc. Sick shot!

I was listening to some cyclists yesterday, apparently you need to wax the area first, then wearing lycra (no underwear) and apply a small amount of baby oil.
Should prevent your problem
