SOCKS!!!!
never can have enough socks!!! i like hats too, but they can start to add up like tees...and to get a decent waterbottle to use as a give-away is probably not cost efective??? maybe...all the waterbottles i have gotten as freebies are leaky...
so again...i vote socks (besides...you can use the left-overs for a secret sister...hehe)

I am a nobody; nobody is perfect, and therefore I am perfect.

And if you do give socks as swag, remember that one size does not fit all! Be sure there is a choice of sizes (just like t-shirts).

oh... i like eden's lip balm idea too (but still like socks best, if you are counting votes!) i ALWAYS carry a lip balm.... and if you go that route.. make sure it's a good scent/flavor! (got one at a vendor and it smells like ben gay.. ICK!)
also.... got a little purse/wallet thing at smog to surf... .i THOUGHT It would be really cool and useful.... \they both sit on a shelf unused!
so socks or lip balm!

The lip balm was the good kind - nice and smooth and ummmm tutti frutti.
Oh- and there's a local hospital that is the title sponsor for a lot of rides around here now (and the title sponsor of my team plug plug
). They give away what they "ouch pouches" that have band aids, gauze pads, alcohol pads, antibiotic ointment - basically all of the stuff you need for minor road rash. Being on the team I have lots of them around and they are very handy.

How about the lip balm coupled with small bottles of sunscreen...handy and useful.

A small first aid kit is a great idea!
Or how about tubes of sunblock.
Or hand cleaner stuff. Maybe something like this stuff:

I guess what everyone is saying is a "goody bag." It can be filled with 1)hand cleaner (which I have gotten, used and loved, 2) a ride patch (to commemorate the ride), 3) a route holder (I've gotten these at rides as well - its a little velco device that fits on the handle and holds a route slip), 4) sun screen or lip balm is nice and also 5) something nutritional like a Luna Bar or something. I must rather have these things instead of another t-shirt. But definitely want a patch as a keepsake of the ride and date.

I'm a tshirt person if I can get my size. Socks are good. I also personally like pins (buttons?) and collect them. Easy to hang yet not a lot of "stuff" to dust. Also stuff I can use and toss (lip balm and the such).
