I am dammit. Dude can ride. Serious 450 contender. Sucks he is not racing. Would of made the 450 class even more exciting then it already is.

Is he coming back to any races this year or outdoor only? Even if he did come back this year he would ride cautious probably since no chance of a championship so we wouldn’t see full Marvin anyways.

Such a good season in terms of talent and competitiveness, so far. Would have loved to seen another rider of his caliber in the mix.

No SX and might not be fully ready for the start of outdoors.

Sure wish he'd be out there with the rest of them.

I forgot his injury and why he’s out. I’ll google it but dammit it does suck he’s out . He has that fire also. At least we still have a very full field this many races in already.

Honestly, I saw that photo of the San Diego whoops that was posted a day or two ago and I immediately thought of Musquin.

Absolutely. Later in the season, Cooper Webb will be missing him too.

Yep, definitely missing MM25 this year. He just popped onto Race Day Live and said he 'might' be back for the start of Outdoors. Riders definitely peak at different times in their careers and I've always had a feeling his time has yet to come.

Yep. Miss MM25 out there. He is crazy fast. Would add another dimension to the season for sure. That and he’s just a quality dude.

Couldn’t have said it better. We all want to see our Favorit guy win but I don’t want it handed to them, they need to earn it, I want to be on the edge of my seat cheering with emotion.....

He goes for it that’s for sure. He tends to go down more but he also gives it his all and his speed at times is crazy when he’s on.

I just hope he waits until he is 100% healed to come back. Coming back early and racing your self into shape isnt worth the risk of getting hurt again.

Personally, I love seeing someone come to the US chasing the dream and become a citizen. On top of all that, Marvin is just an elite talent and I miss seeing him out there to mix things up. Was hoping he’d be ready for outdoors but now it sounds like making the MX opener is questionable. Hopefully this isn’t the start of his decline... Seems like we’ve yet to see the best of him. But injuries can take their toll on anyone.

I became a Musquin fan a few years ago when I had the opportunity to meet he & Mathilde at a dinner the night before the St. Louis SX with a friend of mine who is in the press. They were both amazingly chill & easy to talk to...and I sure wasn't anybody that mattered at all. Pretty cool.

I miss the guy's riding. He leaves it all on the track, and tries hard. Anybody of his talent and ability makes our sport better with him in it. I hope he heals fast and comes back stronger than ever.

Everyone should be missing him. He's one of the 5 best riders in the field.

Musquin is a badass rider, he would definitely be mixing it up at the front of the pack again this year.

I'm sure the top 10 riders are NOT missing him.

Everyone's missing him except the competition. If you say otherwise then you simply dont appreciate this sport and its riders.

So you dont like more competition and having more potential winners? So you wanna make the racing as boring as possible?

Yeah...I think you're a douche. I don't have any reason to think you're a douche. I just think you're a douche. I just do.
