Response to the Fleurieu Sun.

  • Just wondering if council could provide any quotes or extra info on the Sellicks Beach Rally and the proposal to grant a short term licence to Motorcycling South Australia?

Comments attributed to Renee Mitchell, Director Planning

The City of Onkaparinga is considering an application from Motorcycling South Australia Inc. to host the Sellicks Beach Historic Motorcycle Classic in March 2025.

If permission is granted, this would be the fifth time the Classic has taken place at Sellicks following events in 2017, 2019, 2021 and 2023, and historic motorcycle racing at the beach dating back to the early years of the 20th century.

As always, we’re keen to hear the community’s views on the proposal, and you can provide feedback at our Your Say page until Monday 9 September onkaparingacity.com/yoursay

There you’ll find all the proposed event details such as dates, changes to parking and traffic conditions, beach access, and plans to manage community and environmental safety, including protection of the sand dunes and other environmentally sensitive areas of the coast.
