Answer 1

You can always check a dictionary to be certain of a verb's principal parts.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ride?s=t
Notice here:
<b>verb (used without object), rode or (Archaic) rid; ridden or (Archaic) rid; riding.</b>

This means this verb's principal parts are as follows:
~ ride (present or base form)
~ rode (simple past; no helping verbs needed)
~ ridden (past participle; needs helping verbs to be used as the main verb in a sentence)
~ riding (present participle; needs helping verbs to be used as the main verb in a sentence)

So ... are there helping verbs in this sentence? If so, use "ridden." If not, use "rode."
