The tires are filled with air particles, whose behaviour is governed by what is known as the kinetic molecular theory. In simple terms, during the summer where temperatures are (assumingly) higher, the air particles have more energy (high temp. = higher average kinetic energy).

With higher energy, they are moving about inside the tire with higher speed and collisions are more forceful (and common). Thus, these particles tend to occupy more space, and so the tire is forced to expand, eventually bursting.

Why do cycle tires burst sometimes on a hot summer day?

During a sunny day the weather is hotter than usual. So the cycle tubes expand. When this is rode on a bumpy track they get pressurized too much and thus burst. Also another explanation can be that during a sunny day the weather can be dry which can lead to thorns lying on the road freely. This causes the tubes to burst.
