Great idea. I just saw this from seeedstudio:

http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/bicycle-dynamo-with-bracket-6v-3w-p-798.html

This plus a 7805, a diode, and a capacitor would likely work, but  a
more elegant solution might be a DC-DC converter or Mintyboost
(http://www.adafruit.com/products/14) that charges from the dynamo
