If you don't want to go off-road then you'll be carrying weight around with you that you simply don't need with either the Cannondale or the Boardman.
Flip side being of course that both will keep going in conditions that would bring a tourer to a grinding halt.
The vast majority of miles that I have put on my Boardman have been on road tyres, and in it's role as training bike the 3kg that it has on my road bike is, in a way, an advantage.
