Mainly bikes as a system I'm curious about - bearings, tubes, materials, the properties of frames and wheels and so on. And anything that would be applicable in a DIY project or whatever. Steam is cool though, but no prospect of it ever really being useful in my life!

Haha fair enough, although I would have said the same until my current job!
I would have thought most of that stuff is fairly universal until you get down to bike specific parts (weird tube shapes etc) - searching 'mechanical engineering bearings' for example brings up some interesting stuff at a range of depths.
