For tanky early opponents: Garen just screws Riven up, farm except if your jungler ganks. About Cho'gath I don't know. I think that, with enough early agression, you should be able to zone him away from your minions (his sustain) and probably kill him. I'm not sure about that though. Let's just say that Riven hates tanky. You can probably try to push the lane and gank mid. Mids aren't tanky. Or invade a buff. Riven loves both blue and red buff, even though she NEEDS neither.

For minion aggro, a rule of thumb is, don't go in of the enemy has more minions than you. He has 8 minions and you have 3? Wait until the wave is even to go in. If you don't feel like waiting and lasthitting and stuff, just clear it. Riven has insane waveclear.
