New. Which bike - 2 choices please for a novice

Hello everyone
I wonder if you could spare 5 mins for some advice please.
I am not a serious cyclist but in the quest to get fitter and lose more weight I am doing 8-10 miles a day on my old Claud Butler Pagan bike (which is falling to bits under the strain). So I am looking for something a little more robust.
I am riding on roads and bridle paths/towpaths mostly with some hills but lots of uneven pebbly ground (and thats just the roads) so I have been recommended a hybrid - this one to be precise: GT BIKES Transeo 2.0 Disc
However, in terms of been entirely shallow I rather prefer the Mongoose Tyax Elite
I'm doing this to get fit so I dont mind it being harder to ride on the road.
Any thoughts on either - good or bad please?
thanks a lot in advance

The kraken has currently got 20% off so can be had for £320...unfortunately they ain't giving the discount on the fury.
Nice spec for this price
