rode your luck

To attempt something without knowing if one will be successful.

Also the début single from indie rock band The Tapestry, a favourite at their gigs: (chorus) -

"While I was alone and you were stuck,
You kept me on tender hooks,
You were the only thing I took,
While you were right, you rode your luck!"

rode the shark

This means when something that used to be great is done for good. Comes from the show Happy Days... There was one episode near the end where the Fonz rode a shark, and after that, the show was kind of down the tubes. Like when Felicity cut her hair.

"Yo--where's your girlfriend?" "Eh, bitch is gone--she rode the shark"

rode hard and put away wet

The way someone looks or feels when they've had a hard time of it. From a horseman's term, when someone has not taken care of a horse after a hard day.

He was all hot and sweaty, he looks like he was rode hard and put away wet.
