diy bicycle dyno: how to drive from tire

Been awhile since i have been in the saddle, and when my knee heals up, I intend to hit the trails behind my house. I already have an awesome lighting system I fashioned for night use as that bug bit me. Anyway, what I am looking to do now is bogart a drill motor for a dyno. I'm an electrician by trade with a BAS in electronics, so my only question is how to drive the motor off of the wheel. I can figure out mounting but am still trying to come up with a way to spin it.
