Suprisingly Lynchburg is a dry town. Everything they sell has JD in it or is JD related but you can't actually buy it there.

I toured the JD plant when I was like 16. You can buy JD fruit cake there.

They had a "Cruise for the Cure" for St Judes Hospital in June. 10 bucks and you could take 5 laps. A few more guys from here also ran there. A lot of fun.

They had a deal where you could run laps on the track. Check out THIS thread for details.

If you've never experienced Bristol in person, I would highly recommend it. There is nothing else in the world like it.
