Last month I secured 3 RV camping spots all next to each other on the highlands and five passes for the premium bleachers for this years Glen Helen National and when I told the wife she asked what weekend it was for and when I told her she promptly informed me that it was our daughters high school graduation that weekend.

My Glenn Helen adventure has been shattered, I had such big plans. So, If anyone is interested in buying me out of this package PM me.

Phone your daughters school immediately and ask them to move the grad date.....simple solution really...

Glen Helens a big place. Instead of moving the date, just have them move the venue. Thats what I do, solve problems.

Promise your daughter that you'll make it to her college grad. Buy her a moto tee. Drink an extra beer in her honor. Negotiate fair settlement with soon-to-be ex-wife. Get on Vital Sunday morning with a bunch of negative comments and complaining. Lastly, follow the script at all costs.

You could see if someone wants to adopt your daughter. Then you wouldn't feel obligated to go to the graduation.

Too far?

OP, back in the day I missed my own graduation for round 3 of the local billybadass mx series where I was competing for the highly coveted 125 C class. I could have sat in a gym for 3 hours like a dickhead waiting for my name to be called, or chased my dream of being a total badass Champion with a capital C. I chose the latter of course, and look at me now... Everyone knows my name. I then went on to get a tattoo reading "no ragrets" on my chest to commemorate this event.
If I were you... Hire a stunt double to cover for ya. It's California, land of Hollywood.
Good luck

Not sure where you're heading there from but here in the Northeast we get snow days that constantly push back the graduation dates due to makeup days. The final date is rarely set in stone before mid April.
Hope it all works out for you, and Congrats to your Daughter.

If not..Maybe a little Water Main break at the school is in order?

What if she's not really even yours anyway!?






Kidding.... I almost did the same thing with my son's graduation this year as well. Luckily I missed it by a week. There will be other stupid MX races.

I apologize for the inquiry, but do you have strength training as part of your workout, brother?
