Black with a plastic button above the rear pocket for a disc light to fit in . I'm pretty sure the light is in the breast pocket .

Thanks Jason, some great pictures.
I'll put a link to that from the Club website.

Its been a while since I picked up the camera so they are not the best but hopefully people will find them useful .
Is there a map of the H25/4 ? I'm doing this one on the 24th and would like to give it a run tomorrow . Its probably my rubbish google skills but I cant find any of the club routes mapped out let alone other routes .
I haven't booked for the next 10 at Hillingdon due to doing the 25 on the Sunday but if you don't mind me bringing the camera again then I will come along . Might put the bike in the van just incase there is a free spot .

Here it is. You start at Great Missenden and head towards Wendover. Turn at the bottom of the bypass and come all the way back to Amersham. Then turn there, back through Gt Missenden again before turning for the last time at the top of the bypass (don't go back down it again as on the first lap). Then it's a (mostly) downhill charge to the finish just before Gt Missenden.
It's not a fast course but it is quite interesting to ride as it is varied. It tends to be windy on all but the calmest days and the road surface is not great in some places, but it is quite flat overall. There's only one significant hill, on the Great Missenden bypass, but coming up the Wendover bypass can be a real slog if the wind is against you.
Good luck!

I went down there today but my garmin did a fart after about 5 miles so I have no idea if I turned at the right point or not . I can also see why its held early mornings as cars whizzing by at 60mph on a single lane country road at 3pm Sunday afternoon isn't that much fun although I still enjoyed the day finding the start point and what not .

Yes, the traffic builds up on that road so it is best to be out of the way by 10 o'clock.
You did the 10 course, which is the same as the start of the 25. It was a bit windy today so the Wendover bypass might have been quite tough, but probably helping you back up the hill, so not as bad as when it is from the East.
Looks like you turned at the right place. On the 25, the second time you go that way you will turn at the earlier roundabout.
