I have up to £1000 to spend on a bike for commuting to work (6 miles each way - mainly on roads but some pavement required).
I am getting it through Halford's cycle to work scheme run by my employer so am limited to what they can offer.
I am male, 34, 6' 1" and weigh about 12st 7lbs (if that helps).
I used to ride mountain bikes all the time as a kid but haven't ridden for at least 10 years now.
I am basically struggling to decide between a Hybrid or a Road Bike. I will only use the bike for the work commute presently but maybe for some family weekend riding with the kids in the future.
Ideally I want to spend about £500 on the bike and maybe another £100 on accessories...
Any advice would be most welcome.
