Paul Davis's Bikemarks

Paul was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor in July 1997, shortly after this page was last updated, and he died April 11, 1999. For more information on Paul's fight against the brain tumor, see Diary of a Brain Tumor Patient's Wife.

Paul's Bikemarks are now being maintained on the University of Chicago Velo Club's website. See Bikemarks by Paul Davis for more information.
