Australian cyclist Melissa Hoskins has been cleared of serious injury and says she intends to compete in the track pursuit after a high-speed crash at the Olympic velodrome.

Hoskins was riding at speed with Ashlee Ankudinoff, Georgia Baker, Amy Cure and Annette Edmondson when four of the five riders came off their bikes after hitting the boards on turn three.

Hoskins was in visible agony with a hip injury and was stretchered off by medical staff.

"I'm grateful that I have nothing broken but it wasn't exactly the most comfortable position and comfortable feeling I've had," Hoskins said after being released from hospital.

"You know, when you're crashing at those speeds it's never good but I'm just grateful that none of the other girls were hurt or injured either.

"I've still got four days before qualifying and a day off before the semis and finals on Saturday.

"The girls are in fantastic form. It's a bit of a setback but we will do what we do and get on with the job and it's a new day tomorrow."

Ankudinoff, Baker and Cure were able to walk away from the crash with track burns and splinters.

The remaining team member, Edmondson, was the only rider to avoid crashing.

Edmonson later said everyone in the team was alright.

"Bruised, battered but OK thanks for all the supportive messages!" she wrote on Twitter.

Hoskins, Ankudinoff, Cure and Edmondson broke the world record for the 4,000m event at the world championships in France last year and were considered strong medal contenders in Rio.
