Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Ummmm, but why?

If they meant you could hear traffic better and therefore lessen the chance of getting splatted, then fine, great invention. But there was nothing about that.

I have no idea what the hell they are supposed to do... Can someone enlighten me?

they are supposed to block the wind from your ear so you dont have that constant win noise...next time you bike take your index finger and place it right in front of your ear and listen to the difference
