Until you stop. I wear a sweat band on every ride but still end up with stinging eyes when I stop.

I wear a cycling cap on every ride. Mostly to avoid scalp burn stripes. It also absorbs a lot of sweat. Most of my caps are cotton but they do come in synthetic quick dry if you want.
I haven’t had sweat run into my eyes since I started wearing the hat.

I can't say about a 100+ mile race. For my rides, I usually stop periodically, air out the sweat band, and turn the driest part forward. T-Shirt drying face? A synthetic jersey may be less effective for that.

Socially approved sweat wiping technique..why think, certainly don't solved the issue alone..this being 2021, there must be an app for that.
