I am just starting to contribute to OSM, in part to encourage me to get out on foot and on pushbike. My modest target for 2009 is to complete the map for the area within 5 miles of Holme.

Welcome :) Seems to be a fair amount done in that area, but lots of minor roads and land use you could do (forests etc).
If you haven't seen it, you can get out-of-copyright maps you can trace over (or use to check completeness) on Potlatch. I believe Potlatch has better accuracy than other editors if you wish to trace these maps.
Good luck and have fun!

Welcome!
You should make a screenshot of the map now and every month and so, to monitor your progress. I was totally amazed how fast the map became crowded, a great motivator.
When I started my goal was to complete everything within 15 minutes walking-distance. Since I'm living downtown I figured that should take a year - That was fourteen months ago and by now I've mapped vast parts the whole city (population:250k, ca. 10km in diameter).
Good luck!
