President of the United States Joe Biden fell off his bike on Saturday while attempting to dismount after stopping to speak with a gathering of people at Cape Henlopen State Park around his Delaware beach home. He was, however, not injured. "I'm good. I got my foot caught [in the toe cages]," he reportedly stated after US Secret Service agents rushed to his aid.

Context
Why does this story matter?
  • As the oldest president of the United States, Biden's health is a constant topic of discussion, especially as speculation mounts over whether he will seek another term in 2024.
  • Biden broke his foot in November 2020 while playing with his German shepherds.
  • In November 2021, however, Biden received a clean chit for his health from his doctor, who described him as "healthy" and "vigorous."
Incident
How did the incident occur?

When President Biden, 79, and First Lady Jill Biden finished their morning ride, he made the decision to pedal over to a group of well-wishers who had gathered by the bike trail. When President Biden attempted to dismount from the bike, he fell to the ground on his right-hand side and rolled onto his back before he was helped to stand.

Statement
President is fine, doesn't require medical attention: White House

The president quickly got back on his feet and conversed with onlookers for several minutes. Following the incident, a White House official affirmed that the president was fine, didn't need medical attention, and looked forward to spending the rest of his day with his family. The Bidens are at Rehoboth Beach for the weekend. On Friday, they celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary.

Biden takes media questions, to ease tariffs on Chinese imports

Meanwhile, responding to media questions on Saturday, President Biden stated he was "in the process" of deciding whether to ease some Trump-era tariffs on Chinese imports in order to reduce inflationary pressures. When asked whether he was satisfied with the progress of gun control legislation in the wake of mass shootings, Biden stated that he was pleased with only Delaware's ban on assault-style weapons.
