Isochrones are lines showing how far you can get in any direction in a certain timespan, from a specific start point. For a specific bicycle cruise speed the isochrones can be combined with those of the car into lines where one mode overtakes the other. Now there are 2 choices for adding additional lines:
- Lines that show time differences for the same bicycle cruise speed. Which results in a different image for every speed.
- Lines that show other bicycle cruise speeds where they pass cars. Which results in 1 static image. Both options are nice measures for 'the race against the car'.
Put such a static picture under the nose of drivers, especially where they mingle, hoping to start a discussion. Perhaps a giant print above the door of all elementary schools, for waiting parents to see. Or on the floor of a big in- or outdoor playing space of that same school. Or similar spots at big employers
The more your brain and body interacts with information, and the more it is connected to face or place, the better it sticks. Maybe hook up the speed of a (hometrainer) bike to control the speed-dependent image? As long as you don't move the hometrainer bike a lot, within a certain speed you don't need to recalculate the image, so you don't much processing power, or a screen even (a stack of prints and someone to operate will do).
The fastest option might be walking into your homeoffice or garden with your notebook or VRglasses, but as biking is healthy exercise you could also combine it with taking a train. Shorter driving times are helped by less cars a lot more than by expensive extra car infrastructure, so either way vote for bike-friendly parties.
