Street traveller, no dawdler? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

strider

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

'no dawdler?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'street traveller' is the wordplay.
'street' becomes 'st' (abbreviation).
'traveller' becomes 'rider' (rider is a kind of traveller).
'st'+'rider'='STRIDER'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for strider that I've seen before include "Walker" , "One stepping out" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
