Thanks for the reply. I considered the Uptown, but I was concerned the internal gearing would not give me enough gearing options. The 10 mile commute will be mostly on country roads (2 miles) and a rail to trail path (8 miles). I will be moving to Indiana, not too hilly but it can get pretty windy and I thought the extra gearing would be helpful in maintaining speed in the wind.
