The funny thing is, I can actually "hear" my bike better with the ear plugs in! There's less wind noise, so the engine noise is clearer. I seem to be able to "feel" the engine better also. I think this may be due to less distracting noise...
At least give it a try. And by try, I mean more then one day. It took me about 2 weeks of using them almost every day to get used to them.
As far as music and riding, I can't stand music... I like to listen to the bike and what's going on around me (other cars, etc.) I've been doing a week long ride every summer, and only used music for one day on the first year of riding. I found it way too distracting... To each their own :-P
