A single pole aerial tramway apparatus (100) carries multiple cycles in an upright position along the path of overhead cables (202) from an aerial tramway (200). A single, bowed pole (102) supports a multi-cycle support assembly (108) on which multiple cycles (300a-c) are mounted. The bowed pole (102) has a medial region (104c) that arcs distally from the cycles, so as to create additional space for loading and carrying the cycles. A bracket (106) forms a junction point that detachably connects a pole cable end (104a) of the bowed pole (102) to a cable extension member (204) from the cable. The bracket (106) may be hinged to enable the pole (102) to sway to reduce mechanical stress. A multi-cycle support assembly (108) attaches to the pole cycle end (104b). A primary stabilization bar (110) and a secondary stabilization bar (112) carry and balance the multi-cycle support assembly (108). Cycle racks (114a-c) set on the stabilization bars (110, 112) receive the cycles in a front tire depression (116) and a rear tire brace (120).
