- Education is riding on the back of developing internet technology and communication.

Lemonade from lemons and all that. There are points in the book where one imagines that the movie might not be all that bad, if the director knows what she’s doing and if the actors can keep straight faces.

Donay, another expression is "to ride/go piggyback". The expression comes from how an adult carries a child on his back/shoulders. You piggyback a shipment if you send it with a larger one for the sake of convenience or economy. You piggyback a report if you attach it to another. The list does not end.
