It's only right for everyone to get somewhere (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reach

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

'get somewhere' is the definition.
'reach' can be an answer for 'get' (reaching is a kind of getting). I'm not sure about the 'somewhere' bit.

'it's only right for everyone' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'right' could be 'r' (common abbreviation) and 'r' is present in the answer.
'everyone' could be 'each' (I've seen this before) and 'each' is found in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for reach that I've seen before include "Extent of influence" , "bay" , "Hit" , "range" , "Come to - stretch of river" .)
