Hi Guys, I'm loving my new bike... I'm making an effort to ride everyday. One thing I've noticed straight away is the whistle if the wind in my ears as I ride, which is quite distracting. Sometimes I think a car is there (getting a mirror) and look behind to see there is not.

Previously when I rode motorcycles I used ear plugs to dampen the noise and make the ride much more comfortable. There was no significant hearing loss which compromised my safety, and I could still hear traffic.

Do people use air plugs when cycling to remove the sound of the wind in your ears, or would this be considered dangerous? If not, what do people use, or is it just accepted as part of cycling?
