Right preposition
Is it on or for? I have seen sentences with both?
Let's go for a ride.
Let's go on a ride.
If both are right, what is the difference?
Thank you.

But is ‘on’ wrong in this case?

You would say "Let's go on a ride" at a fair, if you wanted to go on a roller coaster or a ferris wheel.
