A carrier includes supports that attach to opposite sides of the axle of a steerable wheel. Extending generally vertically from the supports are cylindrical tubes that accommodate long and narrow cargo such as baseball and softball bats. The tubes are held near the top by a first bracket extending between them. A second bracket is attached to the first through an elongated slot, and secures the first bracket to the vehicle, for example, at the steering column. The carriers extend vertically beyond the first bracket and so provide support for baseball and softball gloves and mitts. A ball container is suspended from the first bracket between the tubes. When the steering column and steerable wheel are rotated, the carrier rotates also, thereby preventing interference between the carrier and the transportation device. While the invention has application with other transportation devices, particular synergy is found when the inventive carrier is used in combination with a bicycle.
