(He's still got a ways to go to catch 10wheels)
Yep, 22147 in RUSA events in 1 year, including 2x 1000km, 2x 1200km (that counted; the Granite Anvil and the Down Under didn't go toward this record), maybe 5 or 6x 600km and the rest were 200 - 300 mostly.
Check it at the RUSA results page. Just put his last name in the "surname" search field. He's around 18,000km for this year already.
(When Vinnie retires and has more time to ride, I bet he'll catch 10wheels.)
