India’s Mini-Craze for Bicycling Around the World

I hardly call this "proof" - the cyclists belong to Parsi community, an affluent and financially stable community in India for a long time now. Thus, they would be an exception, not the rule.

Fun fact: the GP mentions they met Iranians, and these people are Parsis - Zoroastrian Persian immigrants to India.

True. Even though Parsees escaped Iran to flee Islamic persecution one day, they have become Indians. Identifying them as "Iranians" is dumb.
