For me it's a Stella, ridden by Louison Bobet with the iconic Huret Bobet rear derailleur.

For me, they would be bikes that I would instantly associate with the rider and success:
Andy Hampsten’ Landshark “Huffy”
Indurain’s Banesto Pinarello
Scott Moninger’s Coors Light Serotta
Raul Alcala’s Word Perfect Colnago

More obscure:
Thomas Frischknecht’s (sp?) Ritchey P-21
Jimmy Deaton’s Yeti ARC
Eric Heiden’s Wheaties Schwinn Paramount
