i'm sure this topic has been run into the ground, with the whole giant vs. trek thing, but i searched and couldnt really find anything so here we go.
i'm a definite beginner with road bikes, rode mountain my whole life, just got into road last summer. looking to spend around a grand on a new bike, planning to make trips around indiana, even into illinois (i rode roughly 100 miles a day last summer on a POS road bike that was too small for me). these are the 2 bikes i've been looking at the most.

GIANT

basically, i just know that giant's frames are a little heavier than treks. any help?
