INTERVIEW
This week, an interview with Kenny van Hummel
Hello, Kenny. How are you doing?
Hello, I'm doing great lately!
Congratulations with your performances in Turkey
Thank you
Are you happy with the results
Yes. No stage wins, but a few podiums. I can live with that.
Did you know that you're currently leading the Domino's-ASR
No, I didn't
How does it feel?
I don't feel anything
You don't?
And why would I?
Because it's the most prestigious award within our team.
It is?
Yes, it is.
Oh, allright then. Results are way more important to me.
In our magazine released yesterday, we announced that we are going to organise a non-championship race. The Domino's Pizza Dutch Food Valley Classic. This race will use a concept which has never been used before, with 2 semi-finals and a final race. Every team is allowed to participate with 10 riders, divided in 2 teams. The first 5 riders will participate in the first SF, the last 5 in the second SF. The best riders (number depends on how many teams participate) advance to the final, where the winner will be decided. Everyone who wants to participate has to send a PM to the organizers with their 2 teams of 5 riders. The only restriction is that all riders must be 75 average or below in a computer game called PCM.

NEWS
THIS WEEK
Horrible beginning in Bayern.
CSI: KUURNE
The culprit who caused Danny Pate's puncture in Kuurne-Brussel-Kuurne went to court this week. And guess what? He is acquitted. Howwever, we are going for a appeal, so this is not over yet.
DUTCH FOOD VALLEY CLASSIC
We are very suprised that only 2 teams have announced participation in the Dutch Food Valley Classic. That's not enough. We need more teams. Do you want to participate? Write a PM to the manager of Domino's-ASR. For all the rules/format, see the previous newsletter.

INTERVIEW
This week, an interview with Michael Rogers
Hello, Michael. How are you doing?
I feel some pain.
Because of your crash?
Yes.
Can you still ride a good TT
I hope so. The bruises aren't that bad, but I do feel pain.
Does this affect your Tour de France preparation.
No. I think I'm still capable of doing some good things there.
I hope so too. Thanks for this interview
Thank you very much.

THIS WEEK
Bayern concluded, with mixed emotions.
CSI: KUURNE
We are very angry. The appeal in the DP-flat tyre-case was not good for us. The culprit was aquitted again and we must pay him a compensation for all the trials. Donations are welcome!
DUTCH FOOD VALLEY CLASSIC
Last week, we had 2 teams who wanted to participate. This week, that number increased significantly to 3. We want more teams!

INTERVIEW
This week, an interview with Danny Pate
Hello, Danny. How are you doing?
I'm angry
Again? Why?
Because the culprit is aquitted
How angry are you?
Very angry, that I feel like I should give him a flat tyre.
Don't do that. It will only make things worse for us
I'll try it, but I can't guarantee it. He deserves it.
Thanks for this interview, and please don't it
I won't

An important race for us, the Tour of California, with a good result from Chad Beyer.
DUTCH FOOD VALLEY CLASSIC
We have decided to cancel the Dutch Food Valley Classic, because only 4 teams have asked to participate. I would like to thank TCS, Tulip-Guinness, Lierse-Pizza Ullo and Domino's-ASR for trying to participate. It shows that the interest in the UCPCL is going down.

INTERVIEW
This week, an interview with Chad Beyer
Hello, Chad. How are you doing?
I'm fine
Congratulations
Thanks
Thank you for this interview
Is it over? Already
Yes, I've ran out of questions
Really? You can ask me something
I want to, but I know nothing
That's a shame
Well, this interview is over, I guess?
I think so
Thank you for waisting your time
Thank you for waisting my time
As some of you might have heard, expected, hoped or feared, last week's edition of Domino's-ASR Weekly News was the last. The UCPCL will be shut down, which means our team will do so too. There were rumours we were going to sell our properties to Lotto-Belisol (including Weekly), but we couldn't get an agreement. This is it, this is the end. An emotional period for all of us, but we can get through this if we keep strong. I'll use this letter to close everything we still need to close. First, the Domino's-ASR Rider of the Year award. The winner: Kenny van Hummel, with Allan Davis and Mitchell Docker on the podium. The performance of the year goes to Aleksejs Saramotins, for his win in the Tirreno-Adriatico. He also gets the award for best interview. We would like to thank everyone involved in this team. Our interviewer, our writers, the sponsors, the managers, the riders, Pizza the mascot, and, of course, all our dear followers, who supported us when we needed it.
On behalf of the entire Domino's-ASR, I will say goodbye!
