The usual quick-fix in a small network is to make your default router
know about everything else.  That is, your internet-facing router
knows the route to your internal router - and vice versa.   Then if
you send to a single default and have a destination address that the
other router on the same network should handle, it will forward the
packet for you _and_ send you an icmp redirect telling you that it
will save time if you send to the other router yourself.  That way the
computers don't have to participate in real routing protocols.
