For the record I've never gotten a free bike. Or a free frame. Or any free bike gear. From a club/team.
Full disclosure: I've gotten free stuff at Interbike and as a bike shop owner, most expensive thing was probably some Castelli super-snug bib shorts, and I got a couple demo helmets from reps (most expensive - Bell pump helmet). Heck, I didn't even use the free merchandise I got for my Spring Series unless I legit won it myself, so no Mavic helmet for me, no frameset giveaway, no wheelsets, not even the xBox or other electronics we gave away one year.
I did get a jersey three times from my current team. Sounds good but I think everyone got a jersey.
