Rapha Condor Elite Circuit Series champion Dean Downing was today involved in a potentially fatal accident on Regents Park Road, London. He was in the process of delivery a £15 pair of Merino anti-bacterial socks to an office block in the area.Luckily paramedics managed to rescue the package. "I thought they weren't going to arrive. The ambulance people worked miracles," said relieved recipient Alan Formica. "I desperately needed a new pair for the weekend, as the little pink stripe had faded on my old ones."
The HGV driver - a Mr J Eastwick, failed to comment. Dean Downing went on to deliver a pair of fleece-backed knee warmers to EC1 (clocking a new British-best time for knee-warmer delivery).
