Someone I know bought a Giant Escape Hybrid when he gave up his driving licence (80 yr old + angina) and is currently doing around 100 miles per week on it. It seems fine - if expensive - for shopping and gentle touring (electric assist limited to 15mph ?) but a bit heavy to carry on the train so he's now restoring a Bickerton...
