Watching the MCM yesterday, noticed there were quite a few wheelchair participants, very nice. If I counted correctly all but two were hand-crank chairs. Has the "push" wheelchair event dwindled, and the hand-crank now the way to go?

Is this LetsRoll.com?
Neither, I prefer the bong.
Two different event categories. You have a hand-crank divison and a wheelchair division. You can't combine divisions as it would be unfair.

I got that, even inside each of those are categories depending on the level of disability, but are the people who use to do the push chairs opting to do the hand-crank now. I mean, it was probably 20-1 hand-crank over push chair. The hand-crank definitely looked like the more enjoyable of the two events. Faster and seemed like they were getting up the grades easier. So, I'm wondering if these chairs are switching people from the older more establish push chair competitions. I don't recall when I remember the hand-cranks showing up on the race scene, but they are definitely out in force now.
