    He's an old man with some stability issues and has no business on a bike. He's lucky he didn't break his hip.

    That's not what caused the fall, though. He's using baskets. Nylon ones at that. He tried to clear his right foot, thought he did, tried to put his foot back down but it was still in the basket. Classic mistake, really.

    Please love yourself.

      It's the old bad-president-catches-his-toe-in-bike-clip-and-falls-down story. This is exactly what we warned you about when you elected the man. Taxes will go up, inflation will soar, the stock market will plummet, and he'll catch his foot in his bike pedal clips pretty much constantly and fall over like a bad president always does.

      Education is extremely important.

        May well be. When that bone hits the concrete, it doesn't care how it got there. Biden is almost 80 and not as spry as some. Maybe he needs a different form of exercise.

          He's attempting to lift the economy, but the bar is crushing his larynx. He should have started lighter with his resistance training.

            Someone once described me as "spry." They were surprised.

                      Do you have a bike Jolly? It’s not bad exercise. Easy on joints and you can control the pace.

                          No, I don't.

                          I've got a recumbent and a treadmill for aerobic stuff, but I have the grace and balance of a three-legged cow.

                                    I love watching the level at which conservatives are willing to talk out of their ass about cycling because it affords them a plausible position in their mind to diss Joe Biden.

                                    I hope ol' Joe takes up mani/pedis next week and something happens.

                                    You can clearly see that he skipped the swipe across the tips. Why did Jill Biden, supposedly a woman, allow this to happen? Any idiot knows that you've got to lock in the polish if you want to prevent chipping.

                                          I really hate toe clips or baskets. Never allow them on my bikes, although I understand they take advantage of the upward stroke.
