Road bike or Hybrid?

[Cataboo]

Hmm...
The guy at the bike shop the other day told me definately a hybrid would be better for me. I'm kinda thinking road bike right now. I'd like to hear from someone with a hybrid and what you like about it.

Test ride both. There's no comparison... Quite possibly if you get a hybrid bike, you'll just decide in 6 months to a year to buy a road bike.

Lots of people like flat bar road bikes - trek fx series is very popular on here... It's more serious than a hybrid but not full on drop bars like a road bike.
