Team 84 - Slash Quarter Circle




Hi, My name is Diana Kaiser Berglund, I have been riding almost my whole life. My passion is my horses, I live on a ranch with my best friend and fiancĂ© just north of North Platte, NE. we have a cow/calf operation and have 16 horses, and  variety at that, we have a team of Haflingers, two Gypsy Vanners, a mini, a Welsh pony, Paints, and Quarter Horses.  I love to trail ride and have always wanted to ride in a  a competitive trail ride, but never have, another dream is to learn and ride a dressage horse.  Working with cows horseback is so much fun and rewarding also. I love to drive also, I am kind of new to it but have found it is a lot of fun also, but honestly what is not fun when it involves horses. I plan on teaching my Gypsy horses to ride and drive, we drive the Haflingers and the Welsh pony.

I am a member of a all woman mounted drill team, we perform at our local rodeo and for the last 2 years at the Nebraska State Fair, I also belong to 2 other riding clubs, we get to meet a lot of wonderful people and make lots of new friends. I look forward to participating in the 2013 Distance Derby and hope to log a lot of miles on my horses. I will be riding Sam and Lexi most of the time, they are both Quarter Horses.   Good luck to all, be safe and God Bless the trails you ride.

    Today was a great day, I rode a 9.26 miles today. The weather was fantastic and I got to ride my good old faithful paint Cool Ray, he just turned 17 on Jan 7th, I have had him since he was 4. I rode with Kerri Ross, Gypsy Runner, for a while this afternoon also, it is always great to be able to ride with friends. We plan on riding together again tomorrow, I am also going to try to get the Haflingers hitched up and drive for a while. Great Day, Thank you Lord for a beautiful day and my wonderful horses and great friends.

    I love the Distance Derby, it gives me such an incentive to get out there and ride, and drive

  8. Diana Kaiser Berglund completed a 6.96 mi riding activity in 1h 53m 47s with runtastic.com.

    Took our Haflinger Shania out for a drive this morning, as you can see we went 6.96 miles, it was a little cool and windy but not bad, I wanted to go further but Shania is a little out of shape, she had a baby last May, a filly we names Sissy, so we did not use her very much. So I am going to take it kind of slow with her, we have her full sister Shari also,I plan on taking her out next time, they are a team and prefer to be driven that way, but I like to go single sometimes. :~)

    Burrrrr, it was cold today, it was supposed to be around 36, but the wind made the wind chill in the teens. I rode with Gypsy Runner, she is still riding, I had to wimp out on her, but I have a bible study tonight and need to fix supper also, I know, excuses, excuses!! Tomorrow should be nicer, I hope. Loving this Distance Derby.

    I rode Cool Ray today, I rode with Kerri (Gypsy Runner), She rode my mare Lexi again today, her mare is feeling a little under the weather, she is getting better, but needs a few more days off, lots of prayers for Gypsy, she is loved so much by Kerri. I rode a little before Kerri got here so I have just a little more in miles than she does, but not much. It was a beautiful day today, a little windy but a lot warmer.

    Did a lot of riding today, started out by checking cows, then rode along White Horse Creek on our neighbors land, came home and checked cows again, ate lunch (quickly) then rode with Kerri and a couple of other friends, long day but a lot of fun.

  29. Sometimes it is where your mouse pointer is on the publish button, at least it is for me. Are you using a gmail email account to publish? I had to set up a special gmail account to be able to publish correctly. Just some thoughts....

  31. I did set up a gmail account, but every time I go to publish my miles, it takes me to the account and password page, it will not accept the password, so I have to go in and put in a new password, then go back and re-enter my miles. Frustrating. I dont know why it won't leave me logged in.

    On the 26th we sorted pairs out of the cows, I never imagined how many miles you actually ride doing this. My tracks look like somebody just took a red pen and scribbled.
    Today I rode Ebby, she is my 4 year old and this is only the 2nd time I have ridden her, we have a good friend who started her for us and has done an awesome job. It was a good ride, plus it is my birthday so it was extra special.

    Had a great weekend, went to Burwell, Ne with a few great girlfriends and stayed at Sherry Jarvis' bunkhouse, we did not ride as much as we would have liked as Saturday was cold and windy, so we just had fun spending the day together, but Sunday was beautiful and we rode 15.65 miles that day. We had so much fun watching Sherry work her horses. Then today we helped a neighbor move his cow and calves to their summer pasture, it was such a great day to do it, cool and windy. Then on the way home we brought home 6 of our Hereford bulls and put them in with our cows.

    I have a question, the total miles on my Garmin foretrex 301 says 14.3 for the 4 days I have listed here, but when I upload them and add them up it come to 13.43, that is 0.87 miles of a difference, I have been having this problem for quite some time but did not mention it because it was always 2 to 4 tenths of a mile difference,but this is almost a mile difference. Any ideas of why this could be happening. I still logged the miles it said on the computer, not my Foretrex.

  62. I have you at 476.39. Yeah, that happens to me also, not sure why.

  63. Diana, it's Rae, was doing my research at work about GPS units so maybe I can join the distance derby next year. Apparently GPS satellite technology is not an exact science. It will get fairly close but they are not always exactly on point. More expensive units will get you closer but they are not completely accurate either. Even weather changes and clouds can affect the accuracy. Hope the info helps.

    1. Thank you Rae, I had just never encountered this problem until about the last 2 months, so was just curious as to why. I had considered buying something different, but don't think i will now. Looking forward to riding with you.

  71. Wow, I just have not been able to ride like I would really like to....I did get to ride at the Niobrara River Retreat the last 4 days with a great group of friends from the Nebraska Horse Association, it is an awesome place to ride near Valentine, Nebraska. I bought a new horse this last week also, she is a little dun mare named Cricket, she is 9 yrs old and is an awesome all around mare, done cutting, sorting, barrels, poles, pleasure and just about everything else. I want to learn how to do Ranch Sorting and Team Sorting, she will be an awesome teacher for me. I also just got my 2 year old Gypsy Vanner Gelding, Tie, back from a trainer and will be riding him gently for the rest of the summer, I have been waiting for this day, I am so excited...he is doing great. So maybe I will be able to ride a little more now!

  72. Rode early this morning before it got to hot, temps hit 103 today! I can not take the heat like I used to when I was a younger. I rode with a good friend today that is not in the distance derby, maybe I can talk her into joining next year.

    I rode my 2 yr old Gypsy Vanner Tie today, I can not describe how awesome it was to finally get to ride him at home, I know you all can relate! He was at the Double K Ranch near McCook for training for 2 months, Abigail trained him to both ride and drive and give him the awesome ground manners that he needed, I kind of let them (snuggle) up to me a little to much :) I rode him once there about a week before I brought him home and then today out in the pasture first then took him out on the road, we crossed highway 83 to meet up with my friend Cindy, then she rode with me back to the Highway and left, Tie did not even get excited that the other horses were not coming with him, he did not shy at traffic at all! When he did look at something, he would walk up to it himself, I did not have to ask him. I am so proud of him, and myself for riding a 2 yr old on the road for the first time, I was a little nervous.

    1. I notice you have me at 578.62 miles it should be the 587.7 miles, It only moves me up one space, it is not a problem, but just thought I would let you know. Thank you for all the hard work you put into this.

    1. Hi Juanita, it has been really hard, so far I have not had anybody tell me that it will get better and I hope they do not. I miss my mom so much, I am having a tough time going to her house and trying to figure out what to do. I need prayers, I know mom and dad are with me in spirit but sometimes I just feel lost.

  87. I rode Cricket again today 11/30/13 Rode to my friends house and we tried a couple of her cutting saddles on Cricket, I am trying to decide on a cutting or ranch cutter saddle, my saddle I am using now does not fit Cricket very well, I love it but I want her to be comfortable. It was a warm beautiful day.
