You may be interested in the CycloPath project. http://cyclopath.org/
It is an OSM-like project for bicycle routes in Minneapolis - St. Paul, Minnesota, USA. A user can edit the cycle 'ways' and rate preferences for different ways. CycloPath can then generate preferable routes for that user. The code is under a modified Apache license and the data is licensed Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 License.
