Distinguished Gentleman's Ride

 

Those of you that have followed my cycling endeavours, know that i have participated in the Ride to Conquer Cancer over the last four years.

This year, after tearing my rotator cuff  in December, I still want to participate in a Cancer Awareness Fundraiser but will not be able to do it on a traditional bike. Therefore, this year, I have decided to participate in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride! 

The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride unites classic and vintage style motorcycle riders all over the world to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer research and men’s mental health.I will be riding my classic, Vespa Scooter through the streets of Vancouver to raise awareness and funds for both Prostate Cancer Research and Men's Mental Health.

If you'd like to support this cause, and my participation in it, please click here and you will be taken directly to my donation page.

Next year I do hope to be fully recovered and back on my road bike and under my own peddle power. This year I'll let the scooter do the work while I put the majority of my efforts into the awareness and fund raising for these worthy causes.

Thanks in advance for your consideration and support.

Most sincerely,  Rob Mogensen



Fixed Rates Vs Variable Rates

 

Variables are in the mid 2's right now.  Fixed are in the low 4's.  I'd stick with variables for now.  I'd consider moving it when variables = fixed.  

People are worried about rates going up, implying their mortgage payments will go up.  

The easy way to defend against this is to set up a line of credit against your properties.  If anything goes wrong you will have access to funds to hedge your monthly payment. 

The other reason you should set up a line of credit is to have the downpayment to buy your dream home or to buy a rental.  If rates continue to increase, the market will slow, providing opportunities to buy.  



Fleet Weekend North Vancouver

 

People with eyes on Burrard Inlet Friday morning (April 29) saw several big ships from the Royal Canadian Navy cruise into North Vancouver.

The general public is being welcomed this weekend to view and tour several active naval vessels from the RCN and Maritime Forces Pacific.

Starting at 9 a.m. on Friday, seven ships sailed into North Vancouver’s Burrard Dry Dock Pier, located just east of Lonsdale Quay.

The vessels entering the harbour kicked off Fleet Weekend, a three-day event to raise awareness of the navy’s capabilities as well as job opportunities.

Beginning at 9 a.m. on Saturday, people will be able to tour the ships and view several related displays. The tours and displays close at 4 p.m.

From 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on Sunday, there will be a ceremony commemorating the Battle of the Atlantic, held at the Sailor’s Point Memorial in Waterfront Park. The battle was the longest continuous military campaign of the Second World War, and one in which Canada played a vital role.

All the weekend’s events are free. See you there!
