At the age of six, he spotted moto travelers from far Germany, a rarity in the former Soviet Union. These foreigners entranced the young Karolis and played a big role in inspiring him to ride motorcycles. Karolis says: &#8220;For me, a tough motorcycle ride is a perfect method for active meditation. In my matter, the motorcycle acts as a tool to test the upper limits of one&#8217;s performance and to explore the self by witnessing. I believe the horizons of consciousness are so wide that constant cognition is one of the most important things in life. We all know where our comfort zone ends. But how often do we target to spend time beyond that zone? Yes, it is challenging and simply uncomfortable. But every minute\/hour\/day we spend there expands our comfort zone.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of his passions is to trick in the cold. In 2019, he rode a motorcycle to the coldest inhabited place on Earth, from Yakutsk to Oymyakon in far Siberia at -50&nbsp;\u00b0C. Some temperatures reached -75&nbsp;\u00b0C in some sections of the ride. Once he arrived at Oymyakon, he also took a short swim in a river at -50&nbsp;\u00b0C to see if the cold felt different from the -10&nbsp;\u00b0C winter swim at home. Afterward, he stated there wasn&#8217;t much of a difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2017, Karolis challenged himself and traveled by motorcycle more than 700&nbsp;km on the ice of the deepest (1642 m) lake globally, the Baikal in Siberia. His journey was a solo trip, with no support, camping gear, or satellite phone. He faced extremely freezing temperatures, and rode over fractured ice and ice gaps filled with water. Three years later, Karolis took a role as a survivalist and led a group of international riders known as the Baikal Project riders across Lake Baikal from south to north. He set two Guinness World Records and filmed a new adventure traveling documentary during the journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" data-id=\"18934\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/karolas_gallery_2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18934\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/karolas_gallery_2-1.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.sena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/karolas_gallery_2-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/karolas_gallery_2-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" data-id=\"18942\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/karolas_gallery_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18942\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/karolas_gallery_1.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.sena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/karolas_gallery_1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sena.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/karolas_gallery_1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":18927,"template":"","acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.3 (Yoast SEO v22.3) -
