When you want to talk about riding a horse, or even straddling something, the French verb to use is chevaucher. It literally means 'to horse-ride'. You'll often see it in contexts related to animals, like 'chevaucher un cheval' (to ride a horse) or 'chevaucher un poney' (to ride a pony). But it can also be used for things like riding a bicycle, especially if you're emphasizing the act of straddling it. Just remember, it's about getting on top and riding!
