The Bikeforums Jinx strikes again. I commented on ollo_ollo's early morning run-in with a jerky motorist and, as a result, the cosmos delivered a jerky motorist to me.

6:20 am, on a three-lane, one-way boulevard. I'm track-standing, waiting for the light in the middle of the right lane. Junky Honda pulls up to within 6 inches of my wheel. The guy makes me nervous so I jump the light. Half a block further, the junky Honda catches up, hangs behind for a bit, then revs its engine and passes me with about 6 inches of room. Jerk.
