Im going to spend $ 700 on a bike to go on. I live on dirt roads. I want a bike to go 20 miles away. I will go up over 4 miles of dirt roads, the rest of paved roads. What would best be a hybrid, semi-rigid mountain bike or mountain bike suspension mountain?

Hybrid.
FS is too heavy. Plus you lose power if you don’t/can’t lock out. Plus do not buy a crappy FS for 700$
re: hard tail – a hybrid is still better. You can handle 4 miles of bumpy road to enjoy 16 on paved road with semi-slick tires that still go faster than a MTB.

A hybrid bike is a lot better commuting bike then a mountain bike.
