I suspect that so long as I can hear decently what's going on around me that riding this path while listening to an audiobook is within my risk tolerance. Can you be more specific about the headphones you're talking about?

Remember the ones that came with Sony cassette walkmen in the 90s?
The headphones that came with those were almost always the type designed so you could still hear what was going on around you. Look for headphones like these. They go in your ear but don't actually block off the canal. They might actually fit under your helmet, too.
What gets me about headphones now is that you have to pay $30 headphones that are half the quality as the stuff that was included with a walkman in 1990. Those headphones had bass.

+1 on those headphones Chadtower mentioned. They're really good if you continue to want to be able to hear what's around you.

It's an audiobook. No acoustic quality needed. Put only one earbud in.
