Overly Long Doc Chronicles a Remarkable Life Story
In this overly long documentary, at 2 hrs. and 14 min., the remarkable life story of John Penton is chronicled. Penton was a pioneer in the world of off-road motorcycle racing, especially in the decades of the 1960’s and 70’s. He not only was a most celebrated racer himself, but was directly involved in the design and engineering of the bikes, which would eventually take the name of Penton motorcycles.

I’ll readily admit I knew virtually nothing about enduro racing before viewing this film, but I’m always interested in learning new things. I’m certainly no expert like the gentleman who wrote the other review here on IMDb, so a lot of the terms used here were too technical and detailed, at times, for me.

However, Penton’s story (he was 88-years-old at the time of the filming) is quite fascinating to me. His innate solid character and integrity as a person, allowed him do business deals with a handshake and his word was really his bond. He also faced personal tragedies in his life, but still passed down his love of racing to his family, who enthusiastically picked up the mantle. Penton’s gritty determination allowed him to keep moving forward, despite serious physical injuries and pain which would slow others. He came across to me as a real old-school persona, which seem to be rarer and rarer to find these days.

In summary, the documentary written and directed by Todd Huffman, and narrated by Lyle Lovett, could certainly have used some better editing. However, I still found Penton’s story remarkable and interesting.
