The trick is applying enough brake to increase resistance and enough throttle to still allow you to spin the wheels. This...

    Deuce paddle wheel?

    I have seen the log chained to the tire, but I'm not quite sure what you want to design. Are the second set of rims going to have some type of bar that extends out from the rim?
