Can't make head nor tail of this unless it's a HD event only. Whatever, doesn't sound too friendly. Bike Run.

Celtic MCC is a club formed in New York by Ger Curtin and others...

They have a website, Celtic MCC link.


I know some ex members but haven't heard of an "Irish chapter."

EDIT: Searched and found mention of an Irish chapter.....


If you're unsure about the legitimacy of the DoneDeal advertised run, maybe email the club?

My reading

The "ignore this" means the line - and he's trying to make sure it appears in a bunch of random searches.

Could have been done a lot better, but a solid C for effort.

Of course that's what the "ignore this" stands for....

I've seen it used on DoneDeal before...

How does that work then?

it means if someone does a search for a certain make of bike that his ad will be included because he has included those bikes in his ad

Have you ever noticed when looking at bike ad's that cars sometimes appear, it is because the seller has used words that he knows will get picked up in a search

[gipi]

There's a post about this run over on t'other side - http://www.biker.ie/...ad.php?t=168176

Has a bit more detail in it (or deatail even!)

But why use the word 'ignore' when it has such negative connotations? Just listing the bike names would have been enough I would have thought and if they are really looking to optimise their chances of appearing in any search then a full list would have been better still. Perhaps as Mr P suggest, it was just a crap effort at SEO.

i think it was a case of bad choice of words when the individual was putting the ad together

[spikeo]

Thing is that is exactly what was intended and not what it was taken as
maybe not worded the best and the spelling was atrocious say me and I'd know
What I know about them, there a pretty open to anything
A guy won a prize for riding the plank on an aul falling to bits Honda fifty at there hairy a55 rally one year
Maybe they dont want the anti tampering multinational backing companies to turn up

Ad changed?

yep the ad is changed, but look at what it has achieved, the run has now been publicized on here and on biker without anyone from that club coming on and posting, instead we have all discussed how bad the ad was BUT at the same time agree that the club used to hold good rallies, it was either a very stupid ad or a very smart move to post an ad that was that bad , either way the word is now out there about their run on the 6th may

Can't wait for the detaaills
