Thank you Thayer and Richard.
The Openrouteservice.org GUI map did not work for
my Firefox.
Graphhopper is nearly perfect for what I want, and
I really appreciate you bringing it to my attention.
It's going to save me quite a bit of time.
This is the link I am using:
https://graphhopper.com/maps/
The GPX export of the track is exactly what I need.
The GUI is great. I rarely have more than a dozen
intermediary points along the track, so I'll probably
just create the URL I need to get the output I need.
Or maybe I will dive into the API, but I hate these
API keys that always seem to be turned off, and I'm
supposed to beg for another one.
QuickOSM appears to have a lot of promise too.
It's on my list to investigate.
Thanks again.
Mike

Hi Mike,
I am glad this helped you.
I am going to punt on this since a similar question about how to do routes in
QGIS was asked recently, and I think it received some answers, you should be
able to find it on the QGIS-user Nabble archive.
That said, my initial thought is that instead of using Google you might want to
do your routing on websites or API's that are based directly on OSM data, for
example Graphhopper or Openrouteservice.org that will allow you to export
routes as GPX. You can then use Douglas Peuker to simplify. If you are looking
for a more automated way of doing this you may want to dig into the API's for
those sites.

Totally unaware of the exact contents of this thread... but I know there
is a plugin: QuickOSM in our repo:
https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/QuickOSM/
and I could 'just copy/run' this query in the email and it is loaded in
QGIS?
Regards,
Richard Duivenvoorde
