A motorcycle and automobile enthusiast, he has completed two US coast-to-coast trips, one on a Harley-Davidson and the other in a Cadillac. When he is not in his garage or on the road, he reads nonstop (especially Frédéric Dard's San-Antonio series) or listens to the stand-up comedies of the late French comedian Coluche.
