    Ride the entire 2.1-mile route and choose a standing position on the outside runner at the front of the car's left side. Face forward, hold on with your right hand, and line up the perfect shot.

    If you're riding the cable car as a touristy thing to do,... just buy a one way ticket and take the "F" street car at Market street back. The street car is only 2 $ and the cable car is 6 $.

    Hang on tight if you're on the outside! You'll smell the brake when it goes down a hill and starts braking hard
