When you become "used to noise" and your ears "attenuate", that IS damage. Tard.
No it isn't damage if its not permanant.

So your telling me if you stop riding and 2 years later your hearing doesn't sharpen? If it does, then it causes no damage.

Also, as you get older your hearing like everyting else degrades. I'm wondering if they are taking this into account.

Ive been riding for 9 years w/o earplugs. My hearing is the same as before I started.

Do whatever u want to do, but there have been studies that disprove that earplugs do anything (unless the noise at that time is damaging).
