CRAWFORD, Texas - President Bush (news - web sites) suffered cuts and bruises early Saturday afternoon when he fell while mountain biking on his ranch, White House spokesman Trent Duffy said.

Bush was on the 16th mile of a 17-mile ride when he fell, Duffy said. He was riding with a military aide, members of the Secret Service and his personal physician, Dr. Richard Tubb



Hehe. Wow... Bush is in shape. Not many people can mountain bike for 16 miles.

Heh at least the doc was there :).

Presidential candidates have problems with bikes, I remember some weeks ago Kerry fell off his too.

I fell off my bike about a week ago... I didn't get any press. :(

I fell down once in the hall in school. Everyone just looked at me funny.

Wow.... It's kind of hard to fall off your bike!

Thats hilarious, the secret service was riding bikes right behind him :D :D

i wonder why he fell off his bike. maybe he was trying to turn to quickly.
