[Asia Economy Reporter Park Byung-hee] U.S. President Joe Biden lost his balance and fell while getting off his bicycle on the 18th (local time).

According to foreign media, President Biden rode a bicycle with First Lady Jill Biden around Cape Henlopen State Park near Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, where their private residence is located, on the morning of the same day. He fell just as he was about to stop his bicycle to approach a group of people standing next to the bike track. After getting up with the help of his security guards, President Biden said he was fine and explained that he fell because his foot got caught in the pedal clip.

President Biden then had a brief conversation with the crowd and exchanged short questions and answers with waiting reporters before riding his bicycle away from the scene.

The White House stated that President Biden is fine and does not require medical treatment.

President Biden, who was elected as the oldest U.S. president in history, has continuously attracted public attention due to health-related issues since his inauguration. In March last year, he stumbled and fell while lightly running up the stairs to board Air Force One, the presidential aircraft. Also, in November 2020, when he was president-elect, he slipped while playing with his dog Major, causing a hairline fracture in his right ankle, which made him limp for a while.
