Holy smokes!  I don't know which one is cleaner, the bike or the grass it is sitting on.  That is purdy!!

Final Draft?  This current version of the proposed survey should address all the imput received to date.  The registration(s) can begin and I will start building the Excel file.  Once some more detailed research can be performed perhaps we can have a spot on the home page with the history, photo link, and survey form link.  Send me an email and I will return a fillable .pdf file (click and type on a line or click on a box)  [^]

Wow, startlingly impressive Skip.

Show me another observed trials bike with a high front fender, other than a Mudlark.
IMO, I love the low fender.

More work pending on the Mudlark questionnaire (stay tuned).  Attached is a short vid of Gordon Brennan for your enjoyment ;)

I like this idea of having a Registry for the Penton Wassell's

I have W-492ST

How the heck did you find that Dale? If you turn up the volume you will hear that tin bash plate get bashed. Mine is so bad it is pretty much wrapped around the frame. Should make a new one. New England rocks. They're everywhere!

I heard that, it made me cringe! Mike

This final draft of the proposed registration form should cover the major variables.  An upcoming guide and photographs should help tie which options apply to each model.  Progress is being made on assembling some history and photographs.  This will be a fillable .pdf form and you will be able to click on the area above a line and type your information and click on a box to select the appropriate option.

Looks good Dale.

Should have named them Meadowlark, instead of Mudlark.

Dale Fisher

Great photo Bob!  But wait....  there's more formology as part of the trials registry.  Although fuzzy here this is how the data would appear on the Excel form  [:0]

Where did you source the front fender bracket?
