riders

Those on mounts

Riders is the plural of rider—people who ride horses, bicycles, motorcycles, or transit.

The word extends to additional clauses attached to legislative bills or contracts: The bill passed only after they stripped out the controversial riders.

Insurance riders add coverage beyond standard policies.

A rider may also list a performer's requirements for a venue: The band's rider specified no brown M&Ms.
