After three or more years of checking Craigslist occasionally for a Raleigh DL-1Tourist, I finally found one. It was extremely reasonable, since all the parts worked and were original except the pedals. It was also within my experimental project budget, which is definitely smallish. There is a bit of rust, here and there, but the paint is decent for a '74. I have to put on the brake pads, move some temporary pedals on, and clean it up. I've just been staring at it... a lot. Now, you stare with me.

Oh, I have plans for you little bike.
