Start by making sure everything's tight.
Sometimes you can isolate noises by stressing each part as individually as possible.
For instance, standing next to the bike, squeezing both brakes, and the pedal at "3-oclock" step hard on the pedal, release, step hard again.
Repeat on the other side.

Also, when you notice it while riding, pay close attention to what type of effort causes it
