Biden, 79, had been riding with first lady Jill Biden and their entourage of Secret Service agents when Biden rode over where a small crowd had formed to watch.
The weekend added to what was already Biden’s record-setting pace of being away from the White House, according to the Washington Examiner.
This time, the Bidens were on vacation to mark their 45th anniversary, according to the Daily Mail.
Many shared images from the fall.

Biden sought to make the best of the incident. After he was again upright, he spoke to those gathered there, including a child who asked him about what it was like to run the country.
“Oh it’s like any other job,” Biden said, according to Fox News. “Some parts are hard.”
Biden took a photo with a girl who said she wanted to be president.
The president declined to answer questions about his policy on China, although he praised efforts to enact gun control.
“Alright guys, see ya,” Biden called to the crowd before riding away.
