Hearing Protection for Motorcyclists
Although Earmark primarily works with musicians, we keep our ear to the ground for all things sound and hearing related. There exists considerable interest in hearing conservation in other other circles outside of music... after all, we aren't the only ones that make a lot of noise and care about our hearing. Motorcyclists are exposed to constant high noise levels, and many have taken to earplugs to help keep their hearing safe from the road, engine, and wind noise.
Motorcyclist Online published several articles pertaining to hearing protection use over the years. Most recently, a review of the Etymotic ER•20XS earplugs was particularly helpful.
