I think a good way to bootstrap the stuff is the rental bike program like Lyon then Paris. They just put a lot of bikes at once in the city. There's a lot of friction in the beginning (you know how car drivers always think pedestrian and bikes are dangerous, when the kinetic energy computation tell another story) but I think it's efficient. But you need strong political will, I mean you'll have stories dead bikers in the news, you'll have to cope with the bike-unaware traffic rules and stuff like that.
