I'd say you wanna get your ride on 16th notes Declan
r is low or medium volume.
_ is just a space.
R is normal volume.
r_R_r_R_r_R_r_R_
After you do that, add a bit of reverb to it as an insert and set it 40% wet and sidechain the whole thing to the kick. From there you can start lowering the wet amount to get it sittin where you think is right.

Re: Ride cymbal
another good thing to try when adding a ride to your track is play around with the attack of the side chain if you open it just a little (.5 secs) you can keep the bite/attack so it still punches through the mix. Sometimes it works others it can overwhelm your kick or worse yet the rest of your track.
