The weekly news of Domino's-ASR Cycling Team, released almost every Sunday
NEWS
YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING!!!!
WE WON A RACE!!!!!!!!! Aleksejs Saramotins won the second stage in the Tirreno-Adriatico. He also managed to lead the points classification for a few days. Dennis van Winden managed to grab third place in the third stage. Also this week, the first race without Domino's-ASR (Paris-Nice) has begun.
PIZZANEWS
When you win, your mascot is happy, of course. But our mascot Pizza was very, very happy. When he saw Aleksejs after his victory, he hugged him for ours, kissed him 100 times and said he was his big hero from now on.
TDF SQUAD:
In this and some next maganizes, we will reveal our TDF squad. We actually wanted this to be a secret for him, but due to recent performances, we decided to make him even happier. You can already guess who the next member of our toursquad is.

NEWS
THIS WEEK
Tirreno-Adriatico ended and finally Clasica Almeria started. We thought Francesco Chicchi became 3th, but after a closer look at the photo finish the organizers thought he finished 11th.
NEXT WEEK
Probably the Criterium International. We think we have a shot at a great GC with Michael Rogers, but nothing is certain yet.
TDF SQUAD:
In this and some next maganizes, we will reveal our TDF squad. A few weeks ago we announced Sergio Paulinho because he was a former stage winner. This rider also managed to win a stage. And he's Dutch, so ASR will be happy.

This week, an interview with Francesco Chicchi.
Hello, Francesco. How are you doing
Not so well.
Why aren't you feeling so well?
I thought I finished third in Almeria, but instead I was 11th.
We feel very sorry for you[, but we have something to cheer you up
Really?
You are Domino's-ASR Rider of the Week
Thank you. It makes me feel a bit better
Thank you very much for this interview and continue to deliver great performances

TDF SQUAD:
In this and some next maganizes, we will reveal our TDF squad. Some weeks ago we announced Michael Rogers as our leader. But a good leader can only perform well if he has great domestiques.

INTERVIEW
This week, an interview with Karsten Kroon.
Hello, Karsten. How are you doing
I'm in a good condition to race.
Your main target for this year are the classics, but you are riding in the Criterium International instead?
Almost all riders of the classics squad are riding in the Driedaagse De Panne-Koksijde as a preperation for the classics. But when I heard there were no cobbles in this year's edition, I decided to go to the CI.
Do you think you can do something in the classics?
Maybe, but we also have other classics specialist (Saramotins, Pate maybe). We will look who has the best legs and for him we'll race.
Thank you very much for this interview and good luck with the classics
Thank you very much.

INTERVIEW
This week, an interview with Martijn Maaskant. He wanted this interview himself, so we'll see what he wants to talk about.
Hello, Martijn. How are you doing
Very well and very fit.
Why do you want to talk with me?
I want to tell the readers something about the coming classics. Can you ask me some questions about that.
Emm, okay. Who will be the leader at the classics?
We have no real leader, but Saramotins, Pate and Kroon are our main riders.
Those three will ride the classics, and you. Who else?
Chad Beyer, Allan Davis, Mitchell Docker, Yannick Eijssen, Bjorn Selander and Dennis van Winden
That are a lot of riders.
Yes, but we won't ride every classic. For example, Danny Pate won't ride Paris-Roubaix, because he's sh*t at cobbles.
Anything else you want to say to our readers?
No, that's all. Thank you for this interview.

INTERVIEW
This week, an interview with Danny Pate
Hello, Danny. How are you doing
I'm very angry
Why?
The race organizers didn't see me finish
So, what happened at the Ronde van Vlaanderen?
Well, man with flag waves his flag. I cycle as fast as I can. 1 minute later I arrive at the finish. I WON! But the organizers didn't see me, my GPS was still disabled and the photo-finish didn't work. But I thougth I won. So I walk to the podium, which wasn't made yet. 7 and a half hours later Tom Boonen arrives and he thinks he won, so I laugh at him and say that I won. But the organizers came and congratulated mister Cocaine for his victory. So I say ''No, he's second I won. Didn't you see me?''. The next thing I know I'm arrested by the police because the organizers thought I was a hooligan who wanted some attention.
We're very sorry for you, Danny
It doesn't help. I'm very angry . I need to hit something. Can I hit you?
NOOOOOOO
*Interviewer runs away*
I was only joking

NEWS
WE'RE BACK!
We are back ladies and gentlemen. Danny Pate was punished for his actions and had to buy a new printer. Which he did, because he still has a lot of prize money from all the races he won And because you had to wait a long time for it, we decided to release it on saturday (NL+US time, it's already sunday in Australia.)
THIS WEEK
Only 1 race in which we participated, but we were noticed! Allan Davis finished third in De Schleldeprijs after a good lead-out from Saramotins, Maaskant and Pate.
GM IN SPAIN?
A few rumours circulated that our manager, Marcovdw, was in Spain at the Volta Ciclista al Pais Vasco. We have been asked why? Here's the answer: he was doing commentary for the Dutch television. And he had a backstage pass, so he could meet some of the other team GM's, which he quite liked. He says that the NOS asked him if he want to do the commentary for more races, on which he agreed. His next race would be Glava Tour of Norway, says an unknown source.

INTERVIEW
This week, an interview with Allan Davis
Hello, Allan. How are you doing
Great!
Congratulations on your performance in Belgium!
Thank you very much. I'm happy about my third place and that I can deliver the team some valuable points.
Why did you ride so good?
I had great legs. But I didn't do it on my own. Karsten and Yannick were great bottle carriers through the race. Danny and Martijn were great in chasing the break and setting up the train and Aleksejs did a great job as lead-out.
Will you shine at Paris-Roubaix?
I'll ride it, but I doubt I can win it. It normally doesn't end in a sprint and cobbles are not my speciality. But you'll never know!
Thank you very much for this interview and good luck for the rest of the season.
Thanks!

INTERVIEW
This week, an interview with Steven Cozza
Hello, Steven.
Hi
You just came back from Spain, how was your week
Not so good.
Why?
Well, I tried to get into the break in Köln, but I crashed out of it. Then a few days later in Spain, I had very bad legs and finished far behind the winner.
And the rest of the team?
Same story. I think they ate too much pizza.
Did they ate Pizza?
Yes
YOU BASTARDS! YOU ATE PIZZA, THE MASCOT? YOU BASTARDS!
No, not the mascot. He's too cute to eat. We had Hawaï pizza.
Thank god, you almost gave me an heart attack.
Sorry
Well, thank you for this interview and good luck for the rest of the season.
Thank you very much.
And it was needed
