I believe the answer is:

stride

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

'walk' is the definition.
(stride can mean to walk around)

'ride on a little way' is the wordplay.
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'a little way' becomes 'st' (abbreviation for street. I am not sure about the 'little' bit.).
'ride' after 'st' is 'STRIDE'.

'or' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for stride that I've seen before include "Walk with long steps" , "Move with long steps" , "march" , "Walk along in direst way" , "use your legs!" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
