This is really sad.  I had heard about the lawsuit, but not the resolution.   I know they also do a bike ride, the Tour de Pepper supporting Kids Across Cultures. http://www.tourdepepper.com/

The next race is scheduled in June.  Taken from their website:

"Following your ride, join in the festivities of Dublin Dr Pepper Days
and help celebrate the 120th birthday of the oldest Dr Pepper bottling
plant in the world.  Family friendly fun and all the free original
recipe Dr Pepper you can drink at every rest station and the finish
line. Spend a day with us and Ride The Pepper!"

Sad.
