Damn, my 1959 Jack Taylor tandem just misses qualifying! Another good reason that I bought that '46-7 Herse!
I am a millennial too.
I also favor panniers and handlebar bags over the overgrown seatpacks and triangle frame bags that seem to be synonymous with the term "bikepacking" but I have noticed that this term is often overused by the general public, because backpacking is a more accessible, well-known, and popular sport. "Touring" may be a more appropriate descriptor, but its meaning is less self-evident and therefore less accessible.
