Cool road vs touring

Hi, I want to buy a new bike but dont know much about road or touring bike. What I'm looking for is one that i could go on light gravel bike path and road. I also want to have a rear rack for a little commuting and I want the option for fenders too. I want tire for the trail so probably 28c to 35c. I would prefer a light bike too for going fast sometime. Any suggestion I really dont know what to look for thanks.

Fuji, Trek, Bianchi tourers, and REI Randonee all will do the job.
Find a shop that will fit you and insure that they can equip it to meet your requirements.
