Several topics have merged here and need untangling. It undoubtedly is the Middle Easterners who dive the bikes with total disregard for anyone else and they are, to a man pieces of shit. However apart from that I have never had any problems with them and certainly can not be intimidated by them, even in the lift of my hotel when I have a boy with me. The Thais too often ride in a dangerous way, especially the taxi bikes who I am convinced have bets going on how long the journey will take and thus ride so dangerously. As I've said before, get a good few restaurants, a few food bars, a few good go go bars and a few shisha bars in Sunee and it's not dying any more. It's THE place to hang out.
