I have one of each but the biking helmet is too small now and I'm leaving tomorrow so I need to know if I can wear the horse riding helmet ASAP. Thanks.

Answer
You could, but you may find it a bit warm if you're cycling hard. The vents in a cycling helmet are there for a reason.
I'd guess that any helmet is going to be better than nothing, so if you value your head, use whatever you have.

Is it safe to wear a horseback riding helmet when riding your bike?

Basically just what I said. My riding instructor said that it might be, because riding helmets cover more of your head than bike helmets, plus they're usually made to be more durable and protective like.

Answer
I don't know how vented they are, but they will certainly protect you just fine! And they are infinitely better than nothing.
