Why is it that an earplug will seemingly work well on one ride, then absolutely suck on another? Do our ears change shape from day to day?
Wind noise is really a distraction. I've tried foam plugs (don't work because my ears have very narrow, sharply angled canals), custom plugs (that work...then cease to work), and silicone moldable plugs (the best alternative so far, but even they don't always do the trick).
Oh...and I have spent money on helmets that purportedly are the "quietest helmet ever", only to find that someone's opinion of what "quiet" means is vastly different (louder) than mine.
What do you other RR riders use? Can you describe your ear canals and how well the plugs you use work?
Thanks...I need to solve this problem. I want to hear my engine...not the frickin' wind!
