Re: Can you fit a road bike in the 2k6 HCH?
Here's the quote

I tried putting a Thule roof rack on the car so I could go mountain biking. The car did not like the rack at all. My mileage went down to 45/46 mpg without the bike on the roof, more like 40 mpg with the bike on the roof. And the battery pack would routinely be at 50% which is very rare unless climbing into the hills. So, I got a trailer hitch and a hitch mounted bike rack and my mileage is back to normal with no bike and higher than the roof rack was with the bike. So, yeah, by a trailer hitch for your Civic Hybrid.
