Raliegh DL-603, I am going to say pre '72 due to the lack of mandated reflectors, and presence of Sturmey Archer "NUT BUSTER" shifter, rivited front badge.
White or yellow? Are those still redwalls, I hated when the occasional knobby would come out of the box instead of the cheater slick. kids screaming I want the slick, like a race car!! I'm haveing flashbacks here.Yea I assembled a few..
a few hundred..

It was yellow, 1970 model with the taller upper frame rail. It was quite the challenge. Never could manage a wheelie though.

She needs the constant exercise - Otherwise she'll get all fat, pudgy, and lazy (like her owner)

Here's the same bike: father and son, same age, about 38 years apart...




Got the bikes out today and tried riding them. The boy and girl picked it up right away and left me in the dust. The son had a bit of trouble shifting, though. It's hard to get used to letting go of the handlebars to shift gears. The wife took some videos. It was quite hilarious. We got her riding one, too.

Peace, brother.
