Hitchhiker's wish (4)
I believe the answer is:
ride
'hitchhiker's wish' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for ride that I've seen before include "badger" , "Sit on (a horse/vehicle)" , "spin > lift > pedal" , "A dire sort of journey" , "Travel (on a bike, perhaps)" .)
