Wonderful bike and photos, Lisa! Congratulations!

I play mandolin, what do you play?
Thanks, Tulip. We went to Quebec and ate those little bleuets last year! We LOVED Quebec. The Quebec blueberry stands always said simply "Bleuets", so I didn't know if they were "male or female". I had this feeling my bike was a "boy", so I'm happy for you to tell me that it is "LE" Bleuet (masculine).
That clinches it! Le Bleuet is my bike's name. (pronounced similar to bloo-AY)
I had a feeling "bleuet" was not used in France for blueberry, because the French dictionary had a different word for blueberries, but the Quebecois kept calling them bleuets.

As to what I play, I play clawhammer banjo and mountain dulcimer and I sing (I played a bit of mandolin briefly but never got good on it).
