The Thule FastRide roof bike rack # TH95JV is a really great choice for a bike rack for your Cannondale R800 road bike. To mount it on your 2014 Toyota Prius the roof rack I recommend is the Thule Wingbar Evo roof rack part # TH711400, # TH710501, and # TH145001 as this is the highest quality, quietest, and most aerodynamic roof rack for your vehicle.
