Finally, taking your bike to the game might be the fastest way to get to and from the arena for a CPFC match. Storing your bicycle is free at the stadium, a bonus to utilizing that option. Head to Entrance 9 and ask the information Centre attendant where to put your bike. Also, when you bring your bike, you are responsible for bringing your own bike lock.
