Riding under the sunset

[Ju]

He likes riding under the sunset.

I want to say he enjoy riding the car during the time of sunset. Is the above sentence correct?

 

[Rover_KE]

No. We don't say 'under the sunset'.

We ride a bike or a motorbike. We don't ride a car.

We ride in a car or we drive a car.

during the time of sunset.

For that, I would simply say "He likes driving at sunset".

Or, to be a little less specific, at dusk.

Twilight is a nice, evocative word that means nearly the same thing.
