  • I absolutely feel you. Every single one needs to have a loud exhaust and the tire-noise drives one insane. One thing that helps me somewhat is white noise or other background sounds (like rain and wind, I use blanket for this). I haven’t tried noise-canceling headphones, but they might help in your case, though I can imagine that they will get sweaty in summer. And I don’t want to carry a device everywhere I go just to drown out the unnecessary noise others make.

    Though my usual methods only help up to a point. Motorcycle season has started here, and the road 700 m away from my flat is used by these idiots. Every fucking minute I get interrupted by backfiring modified motorcycles even when I close my windows. Yesterday I tried to go reading by some trees behind the house (that are more than 1 km away from said road) and my ears started to hurt from the noise. I didn’t get any reading done either… And don’t get me started on lawn tools…

    Sorry for the rant, just nice to know there are others who feel the same way.
