Four cyclists have escaped serious injury after one was hit by a bus on the Gold Coast early on Friday.

Gold Coast Acting Senior Operations Supervisor Stuart Cutajar said a group of cyclists were on a morning ride in Palm Beach, when one of the group was clipped by a bus at the intersection of Dogwood Drive and Nineteenth Avenue, about 6.10am.

A group of cyclists were hit by a bus on an early morning ride on the Gold Coast on Friday.

The impact destabilised the cyclist, causing him to fall off his bike, which then brought three other riders down, Mr Cutajar said.

One man was taken to Gold Coast University Hospital suffering minor injuries, including hip pain and multiple abrasions.

Another man was treated at the scene, while the two remaining cyclists were assessed by paramedics and did not require treatment.

It is believed the Surfside Buslines driver was unaware he clipped the cyclist, with the bus continuing after the incident without stopping.
