The PGDijkstra routing engine mentioned is interesting. And the

I just thought I'd see if anyone here knew of a good place to start,
given my goal is open source routing for bicycles.

The key is not so much software as data. What distinguishes bike routing from car routing? Knowing what existing automotive roads are good to bike, and knowing supplementary information about connections (bike paths, cut throughs, walkways) are available to bikes that are not available to cars. Without that, the routing software is moot.
