I am not able to calibrate an ordinary game controller. Can't move any where

Make sure you don't have any other joysticks/input devices connected at the same time, that might cause a conflict.

You can find some general advice on how to get your controller connected in the user manual: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwSDHIR7yDwSelpqMlhaSzZOa1k/view?usp=sharing

What happens as you go through the calibrate controller procedure in Freerider, do you see any movement on the little dots above the OK button?

(By the way, since you are using a regular game controller you might want to have throttle zero at center selected on the main menu.)
