A carrying apparatus for transporting sports or activity equipment, such as a skateboard, in-line skates, a surfboard and/or the like, which attaches to a bicycle is disclosed. The carrying apparatus has a generally Y-shaped holding member and an adapter. The holding member holds a skateboard, in-line skates and/or a surfboard, while the adapter secures the carrying apparatus to a bicycle. The holding member preferably has a first extension member which extends into a first prong and a second extension member which extends into a second prong. The prongs connect at an adjoining central point. The adapter preferably has a first side portion and a second side portion, each of which may have a generally C-shaped portion. An inner wall of the first side portion and the second side portion fit around a seat support bar of a bicycle. The adapter may be secured to the seat support bar by any suitable means.

1. A sports or activity equipment carrying apparatus for attachment to a bicycle seat support bar comprising: an adapter being in a first plane wherein said first plane of said adapter is substantially perpendicular to an axis of the seat support bar of the bicycle when operatively positioned thereon;at least one arm extending outwardly from said adapter and in the same plane as said adapter, anda holding member extending from said at least one arm, said holding member being substantially Y-shaped and entirely in a second plane substantially different than said first plane of said adapter and said second plane being substantially vertical to said adapter, said holding member is constructed and arranged to hold and carry a sports or activity equipment in said second plane,wherein said holding member is non-hinged, is non-pivotally affixed to said adapter and is not connected to an axle of said bicycle, and said adapter secures said carrying apparatus to said seat support bar of said bicycle. 2. The carrying apparatus of claim 1, wherein said holding member comprises: a first extension member;a second extension member;a first prong extending from a first end of said first extension member;a second prong extending from a first end of said second extension member; anda central point adjoining said first prong and said second prong. 3. The carrying apparatus of claim 2, wherein said first prong and said second prong are substantially parallel. 4. The carrying apparatus of claim 2, wherein said first prong and said second prong each have an outer portion, an inner portion and a free end. 5. The carrying apparatus of claim 1, wherein said adapter comprises: a first side portion;a second side portion; andat least one connecting means,wherein said first side portion and said second side portion are adapted to fit around said seat support bar of said bicycle. 6. The carrying apparatus of claim 5, wherein said first side portion and said second side portion each have a substantially C-shaped portion. 7. The carrying apparatus of claim 5, wherein said first side portion and said second side portion each have a loop rod ending. 8. The carrying apparatus of claim 2, further comprising a stiffening member attached to said first prong and said second prong, wherein said stiffening member is adapted to affix to a back bar of a bicycle to provide support to said carrying apparatus. 9. The carrying apparatus of claim 2, wherein said carrying apparatus is adapted to affix to a bicycle such that said first prong and said second prong of said holding member are directed upward off a back of said bicycle. 10. The carrying apparatus of claim 2, wherein said carrying apparatus is adapted to affix to a bicycle such that said first prong and said second prong of said holding member are directed downward off a side of said bicycle. 11. The carrying apparatus of claim 1, wherein said carrying apparatus is adapted to hold at least one sports equipment or activity equipment including at least one skateboard, in-line skates, surfboard, fishing pole, baseball bat or back pack. 12. The carrying apparatus of claim 1, wherein said carrying apparatus is made of stainless steel, aluminum, a metal, a plastic or a combination thereof. 13. The carrying apparatus of claim 1, further comprising at least one strap, wherein said at least one strap aids in securing at least one sports equipment or activity equipment to said carrying apparatus. 14. A sports or activity equipment carrying apparatus for attachment to a bicycle seat support bar comprising: an adapter being in a first plane wherein said first plane of said adapter is substantially perpendicular to an axis of the seat support bar of the bicycle when operatively positioned thereon and said adapter;at least one arm extending outwardly from said adapter and in the same plane as said adapter, anda substantially Y-shaped holding member extending from said at least one arm, said substantially Y-shaped holding member being entirely in a second plane substantially different than said first plane of said adapter and said second plane being substantially vertical to said adapter, said substantially Y-shaped holding member is constructed and arranged to hold and carry a sports or activity equipment in said second plane,wherein said holding member is non-hinged, is non-pivotally affixed to said adapter and is not connected to an axle of said bicycle, and said adapter is adapted to fit around said seat support bar of said bicycle. 15. The carrying apparatus of claim 14, wherein said substantially Y-shaped holding member comprises: a first extension member;a second extension member;a first prong extending from a first end of said first extension member;a second prong extending from a first end of said second extension member; anda central point adjoining said first prong and said second prong,wherein said first prong and said second prong are substantially parallel. 16. A sports or activity equipment carrying apparatus comprising: an adapter; anda holding member extending from said adapter, said holding member being in a plane substantially different than said adapter and said plane being substantially vertical to said adapter, said holding member is constructed and arranged to hold and carry a sports or activity equipment in a plane substantially different than said adapter, wherein said adapter secures said carrying apparatus to a bicycle;said holding member comprising a first extension member, a second extension member, a first prong extending from a first end of said first extension member, a second prong extending from a first end of said second extension member, and a central point adjoining said first prong and said second prong, andwherein a brace plate attaches to at least one of said first prong and said second prong.
