I think this topic is worth a thread by itself.

I didn't rent a bike for my first 4 visits to Pattaya and now 12 years later I still consider those 4 visits wasted. Here are just a few things a motorbike will allow you to do easily, cheaply, quickly and actually yes...safely because the Pattaya traffic is rather well ordered and virtually no one has their wallet stolen when they're on a motorbike, unlike a baht bus.

1) More boys. You can check out the available talent in Sunee, Boyztown and Jomtien in about an hour if you so desire.
2) Have a coffee at the top of the mountain and watch the evening lights begin to twinkle over the city as you decide where to start the evenings nefarious activities.
3) Day 5/6 feeling a little rest from the bar scene is required. Ride all the way along to the end of Jomtien Beach Road and from there The Glasshouse is about ten minutes. Sit at the bar and enjoy a latte or a cocktail as the warmth and ambience of this stunning place washes over you.

This is just a tiny taste. Loads more to come.
