HistoryHistory
After the defeat of the Hashmal, Ride was given the Shiden Custom as Shino had switched over to the Gundam Flauros. Ride customized the mobile suit to his liking and renamed it as the Riden-Go. Ride then used his Riden-Go to assist in the escape of the Turbines' crew from Gjallarhorn's assault.
During Tekkadan's battle with JPT Trust, Ride and his Riden-Go performed well, destroying multiple opponents. However, he was later forced into a stalemate with a Man Rodi piloted by a Human Debris who also had the Alaya-Vijnana surgery. Akihiro and his Gundam Gusion Rebake Full CIty came to his aid and destroyed the enemy unit, and Ride thanks Akihiro for saving him.
When the Tekkadan's Mars HQ was surrounded by Gjallarhorn's Arianrhod fleet, Ride and Chad accompanied Orga as they sneak past the enemy and heads to the Admoss Company where they contacted Makanai for help. After gaining Makanai's help, they walked out of the office and were suddenly showered with gunfire from three of Nobliss Gordon's men. Orga gave his life protecting Ride, who later tearful reports back to Tekkadan about Orga's death.
Years after Tekkadan's disbandment, a grown up Ride takes revenge for Orga. After Nobliss entered a toilet, Ride asks if he remembers Orga to which Nobliss replies "Who the heck is that?" which results in Ride firing four shots through the door, killing him. He then leaves after his allies kill Nobliss's two guards.
