They are called a "trainer" and they are available at your bike shop, online - try nashbar.com, from Craigslist, etc.
Here is a group with lots of information about trainers. Check the files section.

Or do a search on BFN about trainers. There are many and varied - they start about $89 - magnetic, fluid, wind, etc.
