Our Team
We are here to give you the best experience in nature. Each of us has our own life experience, but together we make a force – Modern Ranger.

Janis Klavins
The most experienced team member. Travelled the world before you and me ever dreamed of riding motorcycles. Rode a carbureted KTM 950 from Riga to Melbourne back in 2006. 7x USSR and Latvia motocross champion. Hunter, member of Latvian National Guard, TV and radio host. Travel guide. Enduro coach. Calls India his 2nd home.

Krisjanis Eihmanis
Krisjanis – an adventurer since childhood. On a motorcycle since 11. The one who brings everyone together and gets out juicy laughs even from the most serious companions. Being professional photographer, Member of National Guard and outdoors equipment enterpreneur, has evolutionally led Krisjanis to call himself an outdoorsman. Because, truly, all you can see him is outdoors – whether running some exciting teambuilding camp, survival training or spending time with his family and friends – it is usually in some forest, swamp or by a picturesque lake. Krisjanis has a catch to see things from the most beautiful side.

Arvids Baranovs
Professional video and photographer. The least number of years on a motorcycle, but already 100k kms under his belt, most of it off-road. After all of the Baltics, Scandinavia, Balkans, Alps, Pyrenees and most of Iberian peninsula ran out of mountains in Europe and went to Africa. Couple of Moroccos at first, then the real deal – the west coast of Africa. After which India seemed like a relaxing vacation. Also, instead of scraping his old bike, sent it on a retirement journey – couple of weeks at a time riding it east with likeminded mates with equally shitty bikes. Who knows where we’ll end up. When back home, there’s a high chance you’ll find Arvids in his forest cabin or in a hammock.
