The last thing you expect on your daily ride is to get up close and personal with some wildlife but that's exactly what happened to this cyclist.

The Queensland rider was out on a ride on Australia Day, of all days, when she was knocked off her bike by a rogue kangaroo.

The Australian marsupial jumped across the road and absolutely KO'ed the poor rider, sending her crashing to the ground before hopping away.

Her riding buddy caught the bizarre moment on camera - take a look for yourself, unbelievable!

Thankfully the rider wasn't seriously injured and walked away with a minor shoulder injury and some stitches. ​

The kangaroo hopped away unharmed.
