Option B) Rid
This option is the correct answer because rid is totally a different word from ride. The meaning of rid is ‘to be free of something’. Thus, this is the correct answer as this is the incorrect form of the irregular verb ‘ride’.
Option C) Ridden
This option is an incorrect answer because ridden is the past participle.

Note:
An English verb can be regular or irregular. Regular verbs form their past and past participle forms by adding –ed to the end of the word. For example: walk – walked. Irregular verbs are common verbs that do not follow the normal rule of adding –d, –ed or –ied to the end of the word to form their past simple and past participle. For example drink – drank or blow – blew. However, the irregular verb ride – ride is present simple, rode is past simple, and ridden is the past participle.
