Disburdened, maybe set out to walk (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stride

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'walk' is the definition.
(striding is a kind of walking)

'disburdened maybe set out' is the wordplay.
'disburdened' becomes 'rid' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'maybe' indicates an anagram.
'out' indicates putting letters inside.
'set' anagrammed gives 'ste'.
'rid' put inside 'ste' is 'STRIDE'.

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
