They have given other directives if one wishes to use even a bike to go to the GC. To use it efficiently, one can avail of their free bicycle parking, which is installed during the tournament. There are 40 slots available and it is requested that the bikers bring their own lock and security systems. However, if you wish to take a boat, you need to commute from Lausanne to Evian, where the regular shuttles take 35 minutes.
