A 40-year-old woman failed to see the cyclist, Snr Sgt Bond said.
The man was taken to Dunedin Hospital and potentially has suffered a serious neck injury.
Snr Sgt Bond said there had been a lot of crashes at this intersection over the years, and a few trucks with failed brakes had ended up in the city's Botanic Garden.
