Anything less than a grand is either going to be low end mountain bikes or "hybrids", at least that has a name associated with it.  What you should really check out are cyclocross bikes if youre not going to be doing time trials on the Mt Vernon Trail.   The Specialized Tricross is around $1000 and probably the best bike for the buck in that range.  Obviously Surly is there too, but the Surly framesets aren't as good of quality as Specialized.  The Trek 520 is a good bike too in that range.
