A cycle-supporting base beam projects horizontally from the lower end of a dogleg supporting post pivoted on a mount attached to an automotive vehicle. The base beam is tilted sidewise away from the vehicle and wheel guards carried by the base beam and its supporting post are offset from the vehicle farther than the base beam to hold the wheels of a cycle so that the cycle leans away from the vehicle. The portion of the base beam remote from the supporting post is mounted to tilt downward from the post-attached portion of the base beam to provide a ramp for loading a cycle onto the carrier. The carrier can be swung away from the vehicle to facilitate loading and the base beam can be latched in position close alongside the rear of the vehicle during travel.
