A person has been taken to hospital with serious injuries after a cycling incident in Rotorua this morning.

A St John spokeswoman said the person was airlifted to Rotorua Hospital from the Whakarewarewa area.

The incident happened on a cycling track, she said.

A Lakes DHB spokeswoman said the cyclist had since left Rotorua Hospital and was transferred by helicopter to Middlemore Hospital in Auckland.

An ambulance and a rescue helicopter were called to the scene about 8.40am.
