I don't now if either city is a great place to hobby, but in Kentucky (as in a lot of places that aren't Texas) ECCIE is pretty dead. There may be other websites that would be better to gauge the hobby environment, but I don't know what they are.

If you're a baseball fan the Louisville Slugger Museum in Louisville (natch) is a must see. If you're into horse racing, you can check to see if there are any activities (tours, a museum, etc.) connected with Churchill Downs (Louisville, again), and in Lexington you might want to check if there's anything connected with Keeneland. If you're into horses more generally (i.e., as more than the focus of horse racing) you might want to take in a visit to the Kentucky Horse Park while in Lexington. And if you're into boxing and the life and achievements of Muhammad Ali, the Muhammad Ali Center is supposed to be very good (it's on my must see list, myself).
