Ear plugs
Wear ear plugs, this piece of gear is essential for a lifetime's worth of safe riding. Wind noise at highway speeds is in excess of 110 decibels. For perspective, a noisy restaurant produces about 80 db of noise, a rock band about 110 db, a car horn about 115 db, and a gunshot about 140 db. Helmets alone cannot prevent long-term hearing loss. Experts say hearing loss can begin at 90 db. Max safe exposure at 110 db is 1 hour, and only 15 minutes to sounds in excess of 115 db. Unless you want to spend the rest of your life saying "huh?" protect your hearing. 
Protect your ears.
