The Fitchburg Longsjo Classic is hosted by Fitchburg Cycling Club, a non-profit organization run by volunteers, who donate enormous effort and endless hours simply for the love of the race. From the core race committee to course marshals to caravan drivers to set-up and clean-up crews, we are dependent on the talent and energy of these individual volunteers to successfully run the race. Over the many years, the Fitchburg Longsjo Classic has developed a reputation as an excellent, well-run event characterized by a n extraordinarily warm community welcome.
Being a locally organized race, we are dependent on the kindness of sponsors to fund the race. We have been fortunate enough to receive major sponsorship from such diverse organizations as the Best Western Royal Plaza, Unitil, Aubuchon Hardware, Worker’s Credit Union, Bovenzi Inc. and numerous other area businesses. We maintain strong partnerships with many local supporting organizations such as the City of Fitchburg and the towns of Princeton and Westminster, Fitchburg State College, Wachusett Mountain State Park, area Health and Fitness centers, bike shops, bike clubs and service organizations.
