The event is named after one of the pioneers of off-road motorcycle racing in America, John Penton. Penton is the man who originally imported the KTM motorcycle from Austria into the United States. He did so much to improve the KTMs he imported that they were commonly referred to as Penton’s back then.

This year’s John Penton GNCC was a hot and humid one, but a downpour on Sunday cooled things down. That bout of rain also turned the event into a real mudder.
