Cyclocross bikes will start at about $900 and can run up to several thousand dollars at your local shop.
Hybrids usually start in the $250 - $300 range up to about $2K or more.
If you want to save cash AND you're very comfortable with your size and the style of bike you want, you can save quite a bit buying online from bikesdirect.com. You can get a cylcocross bike for less than $400. The bikes come partially assembled so you'll have some work to do and you may want to have it checked out by your bike shop for a small fee. You are also buying a bike you've never ridden so you'll be rolling the dice that you'll like the feel of it.
I know people who've gone this route and they've been happy. I prefer to test ride my bikes before I buy.
Let us know what you decide.
