You're (I think) obliged to notify your insurers of any road accident on your bike involving other parties, so give them a call and let them know. Also, get a copy of the police report and send that to them, and details of the other parties involved and any witnesses.
You'd be surprised at the number of times people change their minds after accidents, and misremember the accident. The police saying you weren't in the "driving without due care and attention" category doesn't mean your liability is absolved. The guy in the car would have a valid claim for damage to his car, definitely. The cyclist might also try and get his bike repaired on your account.
