US President Joe Biden took a tumble as he was riding his bicycle Saturday morning, but was unhurt.

He was biking with First Lady Jill Biden near their vacation home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware and had stopped to talk to onlookers when he fell.

The president quickly collected himself and spent several minutes chatting with people who had gathered to watch him bike

The Bidens are spending a long weekend at their Rehoboth Beach home. They marked their 45th wedding anniversary on Friday.
