Long scrape on carbon top tube

I bit it while out for a ride on the weekend. The result of my fall is a long scrape along the side of my carbon top tube. Need I be concerned? I'll post some pics later this week.

No concern unless the frame is cracked

Thank you. No crack. Just a long, ugly, scratch/scrape.
