From Yahoo Sports:
BRUSSELS (AP)—Belgian cyclist Kurt Hovelijnck remains in critical condition with a skull fracture, one day after crashing during a training run.
The 27-year-old rider crashed onto his head because of a mechanical failure to his back wheel when practicing at high speed. He was taken to an intensive care unit of a hospital in Ghent, Belgium.
Hovelijnck is in his first year with Quick Step, which also includes Tom Boonen, Allan Davis and Sylvain Chavanel.

So...I would assume "training run" means he was doing the usual pro thing and tooling around without a helmet?
I would assume so. :/
