This Saturday, August 19th will be John Penton's 81st birthday. If any of you guys want to post a birthday wish I am sure that Dane will be glad to print it out and get it to his Uncle John.  

    Happy Birthday Mr. Penton, thanks for keeping life interesting, unpredictabe and fun. I hope you enjoy your day, for you that may mean you will be on your bulldozer pushing stumps at the farm.

Mr. Penton,

I hope you have the happiest of Birthdays.  Personally and as a group we could never thank you for all that you have done for motorcycling.  I have heard you say before that you might have never made the Pentons if someone else would have risen to the occasion.  I believe I can say for all that we are glad it was you that stood up and raised the bar.  I for one have been very blessed that motorcycles were the great love of my life and the Penton motorcycles have made that love a SWEET ride!  

When I see you at some of the events you are always on the move and I often comment that you move like you are on a mission.  I not only wish you a great Birthday with the family but also wish you MANY MANY more so that your mission will continue.  You have blessed many lives, may God continue to bless yours.

Mr. Penton, I always look forward to seeing you at the ISDT Reunion Ride and I am truly humbled that you know me by name from among the hundreds of thousands of people you've met in your life.  One may call you many things...an inspiration, a visionary, the toughest of competitors, the wisest of businessmen...but you just take it all in stride, just doing what you knew was right in your heart.  God has blessed you richly in life.  You have turned that around and in turn given so much to the motorcycling community.  We are blessed by that.  May God continue to bless you each and every day.  Have a wonderful birthday, Mr. P!
