You aren't warming up enough before the intervals. You generally need to get really warmed up, with say 30 minutes on the bike before you do intervals. I'd go easy on the water as well - that can slosh around and make things worse.

You also probably aren't cooling down enough either. I'd suggest 15-20 minutes of easy cycling.
