Breaking News !

At 8 a.m. Eastern Standard Time tomorrow, Thursday December 4th, online ticket sales for the Penton Owners Group's 65cc KTM raffle bike will close. The Mayor of Amherst, Ohio will be drawing the winning ticket for the KTM raffle bike at tomorrow night's POG Family Night extravaganza. So, click on the link below, and for as little as five bucks you will have a shot at having POG President Rick Bennett calling you with the news that you are THE WINNER !

Speaking of tomorrow night's Family Night gathering. I'll bet that many of you do not know that John Penton's younger brother Bill whipped his butt at the 1954 Jackpine to take the overall win, with John coming in second, both riding BSAs. Sadly, Bill passed away many years ago, but his widow Gunver and daughter Kirsten will be our very special guests tomorrow night where they will be providing us with a glimpse into the life and times of Mr. Bill Penton. Bill was very much involved with the Penton Brothers Motorcycle Agency and their Machine Shop, before turning his attention to operating the Family's Farm Market.

So, click on the link below and buy yourself some raffle tickets, then set your GPS for 763 Milan Avenue, Amherst, Ohio 44001 and join with us tomorrow night for what should be a very exciting and fun evening, and be sure to bring your appetite! Key time is 7 p.m., for you non enduro types, that means all the fun begins at 7, but you ought to get there may be 15 to 20 minutes early!

Possibly we will all join together in singing a song as we close out the meeting tomorrow night, just as John Penton and the guys in the photo are doing at the Amherst Meadowlarks clubhouse a few years back !
