    I have no knowledge of either bike, but most of the spec will be pretty similar at that price range. Ride both and then choose.

    Sean - I assume you mean your max distance for a single ride will be 100 miiles. At £200 for a road bike you will get a very basic model I suspect, and maybe not too comfy for a distance of 100 miles. Maybe you would be better looking for a good second hand bike for £200 or less than you can do up with new tyres and components.
