Reader Project: Shelly's 1970s Raleigh Tourist

OBB reader and upcoming guest blogger Shelly of Riding Pretty has recently become the custodian of this lovely early 1960s Raleigh Tourist. Since it came from a good home, this bike needs very little in the way of work. Says Shelly:

As far as I know the only changes the previous owner made were to remove the headlight and put on a basket. He also added the very nifty bike stand.... So far I only need to adjust the seat post, and replace the tires, which are only slightly okay to ride on because there are cracks in the sidewalls....My future plans for her are to add a fully enclosed chain guard and add a skirt guard.... She also needs a reflector for the rear fender and a headlight that I can fit on the front in addition to the basket that is already on her.

FYI, Shelly and I are hoping to post the first installments of our mutual guest-blogging effort next week. Shelly's environmentally friendly bike cleaning tips will appear here, and I'll give a few pointers on getting started on an old bike project at Riding Pretty.
