Autumn is an exciting time of year, because not only are the trails in perfect condition, but we start to get our hands on all the new 2018 products. With both the new Santa Cruz Nomad and GoPro's Hero 6 camera landing in the office last week, we thought we'd escape our desks for the morning to test them both out with a quick blast at BikePark Wales.

You can read our full review of the Santa Cruz Nomad in our 'Key bikes' test, coming in Issue 349 (on sale 7th November)

Former Mountain Biking UK features editor Ed Thomsett is a downhiller at heart but has been riding bikes of all types since a young age. He's raced both nationally and internationally in downhill and enduro, and has spent several summers living in the Alps and Canada, riding, roadtripping and living the dirtbag lifestyle. Now Ed calls upon his years of experience riding bikes to the limit as a writer and reviewer for MBUK and BikeRadar. He's also an avid trail builder and has scraped out numerous steep and technical lines in the woodlands of his native North Yorkshire. These days Ed will happily turn his hand to any discipline and believes the sign of a good week is when every bike in his shed ends up muddy by the end of it.
