His silhouette appears on the horizon. The makings of a guitar case strapped across his back is apparent. He glides down the sidewalk on his heavily laden bicycle--all his worldly belongings within reach. The "guitar man" takes his sporadic trip up and down Gage Boulevard.
Where does he come from and what is his destination?
For at least a dozen years, this raggedy character--long flowing hair, grizzly beard, tattered clothes--wheels around the city hauling a hodgepodge of possessions. Could the guitar case be just another suitcase or is he a true musician on his way to a gig?
His story is as mysterious as his random appearances. The guitar man...a Topeka enigma.
