Driving Monsieur Chico

Chico awaits his driver, Mike G. (landlord extra-ordinaire and disco king), to tour him around in the classic Citreon Traction.

Mike has taken the Traction all over the place, including a big road trip to Russia. The white stickers above the door show which countries he's visited in the car.

Chico just wants to go to MacDonalds (where he actually did end up later when he visited the Sisters in Montgardin while we hobnobbed in Paris).

He also goes by Techno Mike thanks to his affinity for appalling mix tracks on the MacBook that he carries around every as if a natural appendage (all the better to make impromptu Skype video calls). Mike has introduced us to the sweet pleasures of wine from Alsace and the numbing qualities of Calvados, so for that he gets big points
