I wear earplugs. Helmets suck at protecting hearing

I prefer a well ventilated helmet. Ventilation means airflow, airflow means noise. Earplugs take away the issue.

I considered the noise level when purchasing my helmet. In addition I wear ear plugs, regardless of distance. I spent some money on custom made ones so they are much more comfortable and get worn versus a cheap foam pair that I'd never wear.
