Thanks to Brad, Dan and Bill, who sent me great suggestions.
As I was trying to map their suggestions, I decided to try to view the bike trail on Google Maps. Then it dawned on me to let Google Maps create a route from my home to the start.  Except for a little detour, to take me to a light rail station, it created a great route.  It also gave me an estimated trip time, which will be helpful.
I then converted the Google route to a GPS route (waypoint or track) using the free GMaptoGPX applet.  (Write me if you want to find the free applet or need directions how to use it.  The GMap route had to be cleaned up a bit to delete unnecessary and or undesired waypoints but that is very simple using Mapsource.)
 
Thanks to All!
Tom
