Two cyclists, including a little boy, have been injured in two separate incidents on Gold Coast roads just minutes apart.

The youngster was struck by a car while riding his bike in Southport this morning.

It happened along Enid Avenue at 9.14am.

Just two minutes later, emergency services were called to Currumbin, where a second cyclist was struck.

The male cyclist in his 20s suffered a back injury when he was hit along Duringan Street at 9.16am.

Both have thankfully only suffered minor injuries, and have been taken to Gold Coast Uni Hospital stable.
