A graph by Xavier Disley (twitter.com/xavierdisley)
The air pressure was quite high on that day, around 1030 mbar. This means that
Wiggings lost about 500 m compared to days with pressure around 1005 mbar at the
beginning of june.
A graph by Xavier Disley (twitter.com/xavierdisley) showing this:
So with perfect conditions ca. 54.9 km/h should have been possible.
