Hi,
Firstly please excuse my ignorance as I haven't purchased a bike in over 20 years! I'll give you a brief history before I get to the details. We just had our second child and time is of the essence. Right now, I just don't have the time to drive home and go out for a run. So I decided to start riding to work! It's about 25km one way. I figure I can take off before anyone gets up and be back home at a decent time.

With that said I would like some advice: I'm looking to buy a hybrid. I've visited two stores and was given the following suggestions: Trek Valencia http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes...ncia/valencia/
799.00 or the Norco vfr disc 4. http://www.norco.com/bikes/city-and-...ng/vfr-disc-4/ 939.00

Any comments, input, or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
