As we pick up speed, the wind noise quickly becomes very loud,

For those of you who bothered by wind noise, check out Cat Ears (https://www.cat-ears.com/). They break up laminar airflow over the ears. For me, long rides are way less mentally fatiguing, and I get to hear more of everything. Also, as @hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com suggested, a mirror of some kind gives you that rearview awareness. There are tons of designs to choose; it's just a matter of finding what works for you.

Huh, that's interesting... It reminds me of bowstring dampeners used in archery.

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
