For code challenges, you could read the newsgroups
news:alt.comp.lang.lear.c-c++ (this one), news:comp.lang.c++ and
news:comp.lang.c++.moderated.
Then try to answer the coding (and/or design) problems that others ask
questions about before reading the answers.
If you feel confident about your answer, or you want some critique, post
your answer and participate in the resulting discussion.

For small one-man projects, I don't really have suggestions.
If you are willing to participate in a larger, existing, project, take a
look at the projects hosted by sourceforge.com and see if there is
anything that tickles your fancy. (For an improved learning experience,
it would be best to choose a project with several developers and an
established review procedure.)
