Ride follows Katherine "Kit" Bridges, an American teenager who must adjust to life in England at The Covington Academy, an elite equestrian focused boarding school, after her widowed father, Rudy, accepts his dream job as the equestrian supervisor at the illustrious school.
What may seem like a dream come true on the surface becomes far more complicated when Kit realizes more than just her nationality and fear of riding separate her from her peers at Covington. An instant connection to TK, the most stubborn and difficult Horse at the academy, opens a door to a whole new world of adventures for Kit with friends, frenemies, crushes, hidden secrets and the chance to uncover her true identity. With TK, Kit will be able to handle any challenge she faces!
In the premiere episode, "Arrival" (#101), Kit’s adventures begin when she arrives at Covington Academy excited to embark on a new adventure filled with friends, romance, laughs and self-discovery. However, things take a turn for the worse when Kit realizes she’ll be expected to conquer her biggest fear – riding a horse. Meanwhile, Elaine will do whatever it takes to win in the first competition of the year and both Will and Nav want to ask Kit to the Gala, but who will Kit go with?
