A single pole aerial tramway apparatus carries multiple cycles in an upright position along the path of overhead cables from an aerial tramway. A single, bowed pole supports a multi-cycle support assembly on which multiple cycles are mounted. The bowed pole has a medial region that arcs distally from the cycles, so as to create additional space for loading and carrying the cycles. A bracket forms a junction point that detachably connects a pole cable end of the bowed pole to a cable extension member from the cable. The bracket may be hinged to enable the pole to sway to reduce mechanical stress. A multi-cycle support assembly attaches to the pole cycle end. A primary stabilization bar and a secondary stabilization bar carry and balance the multi-cycle support assembly. Cycle racks set on the stabilization bars receive the cycles in a front tire depression and a rear tire brace.
