Broken spoke question...

I have a wheel with a broken spoke. I need to figure out what spoke lenght I need, but to take the whole wheel in would mean carrying it on the bike for 15 miles. The wheel is still true, should I just ride the bike broken spoke and all to the shop? I was thinking I could also take one of the good spokes out and take it in to a shop to get a replacement. The question I have is, does it matter which spoke I take out? Do I need to detension the wheel or anything?
