Absolutely. This one was parked when my husband was born in 1982. I was thinking about how different my in-laws lives were at 21 and 22 than mine and my husband's at that age. They were having a baby, just got married and parked a 5 year old bike and never thought about it again until that babies wife asked for it 27 years later.
