Sign of "The Turkey":

In Brooklyn, there was, although now rare, a certain type of rider with way too small a frame, really long seat post and the compulsory "vise-grip" multi-adjustable one size fits all plier attached to the seat post. Usually most, if not all, the nuts on the bike had teeth marks on them. Ahhhh, yeaaa,.....aaahhhhh.......most.
