Leaving the house without a (snot rag / brow wipe) is unforgivable; oN or oFf the bike!  The Handkerchief is an absolute essential on long rides.  To maintain proper etiquette you need a decent rag to carry in your pocket.  Now’s the time.  My favorite clothier (and I don’t even own any of their stuff; yEt) has a great handkerchief and bandana made out of linen; fabric of the Gods.  There is nothing like a linen handkerchief; a tactile quality unmatched by cotton and durable as steel.

According to Outlier:
A 14″ square of pure linen goodness. Digitally printed featuring original artwork by Dan Funderburgh. 100% linen, like an old-school handkerchief. Unlike cotton, linen absorbs 20% of its weight in moisture while staying dry to the touch, so it keeps your brow dry on those hot days. It is incredibly soft and breaks in beautifully.
