Jaksche hoping for comeback

"I'm glad I confessed. I don't have to lie to anyone any more," Jörg Jaksche said in an interview with the Swiss newspaper NZZ.ch. "I want to help cycling change."

Jaksche confessed earlier this month to having used banned substances and blood doping. He hopes to ride in the peloton again in the 2008 season, and is looking for a reduced suspension because of his confession. He intends to provide prosecutors and investigators with information about those who deal in doping products, but won't name other athletes, "who are always the weakest link."
