So it looks like using /opt/gitlab/bin/gitlab-rails console will put me in the 
console. Looking in the gitlab-rake file didn't provide me any additional 
information on that. And doing a find on my system for bundle_exec_wrapper.erb 
told me proved not to be good since it doesn't appear to exist on my system.

But at least now I am in the console and just need to figure out the data 
structure so I can see how things are situation.
