The John Penton movie?
« on: June 21, 2012, 10:18:43 PM »

Looks like there may be a movie made about John Penton and his motorcycle accomplishments in life time if the money can be raised.  I hope it happens because he really deserves it.  He's the Lance Armstrong of the American motorcycle racing history in Enduro and International Six Day Trials racing back in the 60 and 70's.  Lyle Lovett may narrate the film.  I remember Lovett working at Cycle Shack (a Penton dealership on Bellaire) back in the 70's.
