    Bicycle Alliance of Washington has a "bike buddy" program where an experienced bike commuter mentors you and guides you through your commute. They also have a gazillion bike route maps. They might be a very good resource for you for your Renton to Redmond commute. http://www.bicyclealliance.org/

    Good point, but I probably should have mentioned this: I have looked up many maps. It's easy to find a map of the roads, but the only trail maps I've found for the area are very low resolution, and when I went just south of the Bellevue Transit center, the bike trail broke up, and I couldn't figure out where it was supposed to continue. The trail map just shows a line that large enough to encompass several roads in that location, and doesn't show that it breaks up at all.
    Somebody said that it couldn't be done, but he with a chuckle replied that "maybe it couldnt," but he would be one who wouldnt say so till he'd tried. so he buckled right in with the trace of a grin on his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing that couldn't be done, and he did it.
