An American Icon

American pioneer and icon John Penton changed the motorcycle industry forever. While living in Amherst, Ohio, the mechanic and off-road racer used his field experience to discover and build a smaller machine. His influence led to new generations of motorcyclists enjoying the open road. Tonight is the premiere of the film Penton: the John Penton Story at the Ohio Theatre. In attendance tonight will be the legend, John Penton, himself, along with his family and others from the film. Regular admission is $25. There are a limited number of combo tickets available ranging from $60 to $125 that include an after party at Pickwick & Frolic. The film starts tonight at 7. (Stoops)
