Melissa Munro co-runs the famous Mavic Trans-Provence adventure race with her husband, Ash Smith. What started as a small local race in the Southern French Alps, has evolved into one of those most anticipated enduro races of the year. When the event is over, Melissa continues to juggle family life with hosting guided trips on the very same trails that make the event so popular. Going Places sheds some light on Melissa’s role in the organization, and shares her experience of mountain biking in this stunning corner of the world.
