Secretary of State John Kerry suffered a broken leg in a bike accident in France early Sunday, and will return to the U.S. for treatment, the State Department said.

The cycling accident occurred near Scionzier, France, about 25 miles from Geneva, where Kerry had been holding nuclear talks with Iran's foreign minister, Javad Zarif.

Kerry was flown by helicopter to a hospital in Geneva in a stable condition, and is said to be in good spirits.

State Department spokesman John Kirby said Kerry had suffered a broken femur, but is expected to make a full recovery.

Look at that old-school Shimano Dura-Ace on his Serotta roadbike. Haven’t seen exposed cables in years.
