Longsjo Bike Race - Leominster

A time-honored, classic American cycling event, the Longsjo is a community celebration of cycling, fitness, and health. Established in 1960 in loving memory of 2-time Olympian Art Longsjo, the event commemorates the life and achievements of a remarkable athlete and person who left his mark on the Fitchburg community and generations of cycling fans. More than 700 racers are expected to compete on the roads and streets that are icon of American cycling. Thousands of spectators and race fans will line the courses and attend the race expo each day. Racers, families, and spectators will throng to the place where racers have gone on to Olympian, World Championship and Tour de France fame.

The race depends on many helpful volunteers to keep it running smoothly for the racers, cycling fans and host cities. We are in need of course marshals, registration personnel, and more. All volunteers will receive a Longsjo Classic race t-shirt & Longsjo Classic water bottle, box lunch, and entry into a volunteers-only raffle each day. Group and family volunteers are welcome, as well as individuals.
