Method and apparatus for providing and anti-sway arrangement for stabilizing a bicycle supported upon a cradle borne upon an elongate arm of a vehicular mountable load carrier. The arrangement includes a cradle borne upon an elongate arm of a vehicular mountable load carrier. The elongate arm is insert-received in a through-hole located in the cradle and the cradle is configured to abuttingly receive a portion of a bicycle frame thereupon. An anti-sway device is included that has a substantially Y-shape with two upper arms straddling the cradle, and the two upper arms are joined together at a lower common leg thereof. Each of the two upper arms have an arm engaging portion having a releasable clasp that is operator transitionable between a clasping configuration in which the anti-sway device is secured to the elongate arm and an open configuration in which the device is installable upon and removable away from the arm in a direction transverse to a longitudinal axis of the elongate arm and whereby the anti-sway device accommodates installation onto, and removal off of, the elongate arm of the load carrier without disengagement of the cradle from the elongate arm.
