My recommendation is to do without. Haven't met a sports bra that really wicks well or dries quickly. I've been convinced of this on 2 week backpacking trips. Once the bra gets wet, it takes 2-3 days to dry. And putting it on wet in the morning is the worst kind of misery. So I learned to do without, and I'm much happier that way. Guess it depends on what you can get away with, your own comfort, and how obvious it would be (are all your jerseys loose-fitting?). A windproof jacket or vest would certainly hide the evidence.
Oil is good, grease is better.
