Rarely mentioned safety gear.

EARPLUGS! After going on a few rides at highway speeds, the wind noise from my helmet convinced me I need to get earplugs before I go on another ride. That hiss/roar of wind will cause permanent hearing loss, and I want to continue to enjoy music and conversation.

When safety gear is mentioned, most will think of helmet, gloves, etc., but earplugs usually aren't mentioned, even in motorcyling books.

I will go earplug shopping in the morning, so I can ride in a couple days when it is supposed to get warmer.
