I have what appear to be hairline cracks on around the left hand side of the frame by the crank on my 09 cannondale taurine, is this typical of how carbon frames start to fail?

I know I should post a pic and will get some done, just initial thoughts please?

    carbon frames dont crack they just fail. (and not always where the damage is).

    Pics?

    Or take it to your 'Dale dealer for inspection.

    Be very weary riding it, Carbon can be nasty when it goes.
