During the walk-thru. Alternately, I can run it. Whichever is more legal.

Yea, unfortunately, the rules do not permit riding a bike during the course walk.

Here is what the rules state:

Walking the Course

It is strongly recommended that all drivers familiarize themselves with the course by walking it prior to the drivers meeting. No wheeled or motorized devices are permitted on the course; this includes bicycles, roller blades, skateboards, "go-peds" and the like.
