New Episode 97 in Bandit’s Cantina – The Series
by K.Randall Ball with illustrations by Jon Towle and George Fleming
The Cantina bustled and Bandit kept the holiday tunes blasting while he stared at his budget sheet. It didn’t look good. The positive cash flow from the Sturgis Rally dwindled. He knew his time in Los Angeles waned and 2022 would be a turning point.
He put on a smiling Xmas face and walked down the stairs to the dining room. Most huddled together over their presents. Brothers discussed bike modifications and upcoming projects.
Marko came out from behind bar and nudged Bandit. “Looking good?” Marko said and then steered Bandit’s gaze to Clay, his thinning head of sandy-blonde hair resting against the polish bar top.
Clay was a too-regular. He started drinking early and didn’t stop. His poison Corona beers held him in place between piss and smoke breaks.
A friendly, helpful sort he wanted to assist folks and started to rebuild outboard motors and handled dinghy repairs. Never said a bad thing about anyone.

5-Ball Racing is Cooking with Gas (or Fossil Fuels) –
Frank Ball Jr. is creating new shirt art and new photo sessions for 5-Ball Racing leathers.
I had a strange series of phone calls the other day. I was speaking with Hal Robinson’s ex and my phone started to beep, it was David Mann’s wife Jacquie Mann. I thought, “What the hell?”
I’ve worked with Hal’s ex for a while and recently her designer friend took a piece of Hal’s art and modified it onto a bandana. We have a few and if you order one of his shirts or a piece of art you will receive one of these cool bandanas absolutely free, no extra charge.
In the meantime, ride fast and free forever.

Looking Forward to Next Year with News from Around the World
Hey,
I’ve been telling friends in a joking manner that 2022 will be a much better year than 2021, “I promise.”
That’s my optimism pouring forth. I believe it. I believe there is room for truth.
I believe the media will open up and find balance. I believe we will correct our course for freedom and America, or die trying…
We will continue to ride free forever…

Hey,
Another fascinating week in paradise. Folks write and text me about the weather in South Dakota constantly. It’s amazing, challenging and never dull.
I tell friends from California, “It’s not cold unless you go outside naked, goddammit.”
Have a terrific Christmas.
Ride fast and free forever,
