Late taxi

Our journey back home didn't begin particularly well with the taxi unable to get to the hotel. While waiting we noticed a lot of cyclists riding past and I was thinking it's just some cycle club. However, the reception informs us the taxi won't make it because the roads are blocked. So instead her colleague would drive us down (in his merc). Probably thinking we would be late he drives at fast pace past the cyclists and their following cars and we're at the station very quickly. However, I'd planned everything with plenty of spare time today for just these moments. After all, we have to make it back to Bucharest in time for a flight.
