Not over yet...
Personally I will lobby mine by simply emailing a reasoned argument for what I see as the safety advantages of throttles and their help in widening participation in cycling. It really is very easy to influence and cajole an MP in the UK.
As I have a tory MP I will also draw attention to possible protectionism from the Europeans as I'm sure that will help wind him up... which is fun.
Should take 10 minutes tops.
All is not lost, by any means. The DofT will make their recommendation and then Parliament decides... So, assuming none of us have blown up Westminster in the meantime you can go all "democratic" and lobby your MP with your opinion.I am sad to see the DfT buckle under to European Union influence just to preserve their own markets from cheap far eastern imports.
