President Joe Biden removed the toe clamps attached to his bike, just a month after falling from it near his beach home in Delaware, on yet another weekend out of The Oval Office.
No. 46 was pictured on his bike seat wearing a helmet, a navy blue polo and grey shorts in the early hours of Sunday morning in Rehoboth Beach.
He pulled over to talk to reporters during his ride, joking that he finally took off the toe cages, which seemed to have contributed to his fall in June from his bike.
'I want you to know an important thing,' Biden told reporters waiting on the side of a road for him. 'I took off the … thing.'

It is believed that one member of the President's detail fell off his bike during the weekend, with Biden telling reporters: 'It wasn't me!'
As Biden left the crowd, armed Secret Service members followed him on bikes and cars to make sure no threats were in the area.
One agent from the service, however, reportedly fell off his bike over the weekend while pedaling behind the President.
'It wasn't me,' Biden, 79, answered in response to questions regarding the agent's spill, according to TIME's Politics Reporter Eric Cortellessa.
The President's bike fall in June doubled doubts over his frailty, especially after being seen tripping on stairs leading to Air Force One on several occasions since taking office.
He tumbled during a morning ride in Rehoboth Beach at around 9:30am on June 18, while attempting to stop and say hello to a crowd that had converged on the Gordon's Pond State Park bike trail.
