I am a very lucky man
I bought a 1974 Mizutani road bike. Gave it away in 1990. Then, in 2008 I asked for it back and was lucky to have given it to a fellow that was way too small to ever ride it.
He gave it back to me.
Do not get rid of either bike. Rent space to store it if need be, but do not let it go. You may not be as lucky as I was.
