Hmm...now you have me thinking.

You could probably use a cam on a shaft and one of the push button switches. Read the pulses when the cam triggers the switch, and work backwards to get your speed.

Or you are more interested in acceleration, you could probably make an accelerometer using either the potentiometers or the gyro..but that is FAR trickier..or at least it is in my head.
