How do I fit a front rack to a hybrid bike?

I have bought a front rack suitable for a touring bike and am trying to fit this to a hybrid bike (short of time, no time to get another rack before I set off). Normally I’d attach the rack in two places – near the axle and to the front fork. However in a hybrid bike the front fork is of course thicker so I can’t use the normal U-Shaped clamp to attach rack to front fork. Is there any way round this? Thanks
