riding off
Galloping into distance
Riding off is departing on horseback, bicycle, motorcycle, or similar vehicle, typically moving away from the current scene: He mounted his horse and rode off into the sunset.
The phrase often suggests a dramatic or decisive exit, especially in Western films where heroes ride off after resolving conflict.
It can also mean departing abruptly or definitively from a situation.
