This one of the shelters in Brisbane Forest Park ... the large forest area I ride both my mountain bike and my road bike in at times.

This shelter sits about 8 k's up a 10.2 km climb of huge gradients and is a welcome sight as it heralds the end of the hardest climbing.

Nice PP MA, really like this.
What is the cistern used for? Cool off in it, or used for plant life or????

very nice shots. It looks like a good resting spot.

If you don't mind me asking- once the water is in the cistern what do they do with it?

Let things breed in it and riders, hikers, horse riders drink it. Not sure if they treat it in any way if that's what you mean. I've never drunk from it, I always take enough water with me. But there are tablets you can take to kill any nasties within the water before drinking.
