Obama was briefed on national security and the economy before setting out for the bike trail at Manuel F. Correllus State Forest with his wife, Michelle, and daughters Malia and Sasha.


The first family went biking at the 5,100-acre preserve during their previous two summer getaways on this posh island off the Massachusetts coast.


After biking, they headed to a private stretch of beach on the island's south shore for the second time in three days.


Obama also discussed Libya with French President Nicolas Sarkozy. Both agreed to support a peaceful transition to democracy and called for Moammar Gadhafi to relinquish power


Advisers have told President Barack Obama there have been no reports of major infrastructural damage from the East Coast earthquake, including airports and nuclear facilities.


Obama led a conference call Tuesday afternoon on the earthquake with top administration officials, including his homeland security secretary, national security adviser and administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
