In a given initiative count, can you ride your mount for a double-move, then with a Ride check, dismount as a free action, to then make a double move with your actual PC ending in an attack?
I couldn't find anything written that suggested you couldn't have the horse make a double move (covering 100ft) then pop off it and double move your PC ending in a charge attack (covering possibly 60-80ft depending on PC movement). You don't really expect a character to cover 160-180ft in a single round, making multiple direction changes, and ending with an attack at level 1-2...

No way, that's just the utmost munchkiny cheese. Your turn is only 6 seconds long. You can use all of your actions while riding, but they happen simultaneously. So while horsey is double moving you could use your move action do dig something out of your pack, draw a weapon, reload a crossbow, etc. You could full attack with a ranged weapon at a -4 penalty at the half way point of its move. You can even dismount as a free action, but you couldn't move anymore distance.
