Trump then joked: "I make this pledge to you today: I will never ever ride a bicycle."
"But no, we do hope that Biden's okay because that was a hard fall, that was scary. That was a hard. Did anybody see it? Well, we wish him well in that respect."
Trump's brief moment of concern for Biden came amid a largely critical speech of his successor.
After discussing the bicycle incident, Trump immediately launched into criticisms of Biden's foreign policy, particularly his approach toward Russian President Vladimir Putin and the US withdrawal from Afghanistan last year.
On Saturday night, Trump had appeared to mock Biden's fall when he shared a fake video on his Truth Social account that showed him hitting Biden in the head with a golf ball and causing him to fall off his bike.

He appeared uninjured when standing up after the incident.
