How much do you think those models, especially the Rohloff equipped one, will cost?
That route hardly looks like the kind of route that justifies that kind of high tech (presumably high priced)bike except for the bonus poseur points and bragging rights for
upscale choosy commuters like some of our pals on BF. I have an old Columbia 3 speed that I picked up for $5 at a garage sale (with good tires no less) that would be ideal if theft was a consideration along that route.
My wife's $5 1960 AMF Hercules 3 speed should also handle a route like that quite well.
