More Bill Greene photos; most of these are shot in the mid-60's at Oceano Dunes (formerly Pismo Beach), which are on the coast, and are still accessible to motorsports. 
This photo shows young Bill holding onto family friend Phil Eaton; the photo was probably taken by his mother, riding on the back of Bill's father's bike. Another Triumph, a 500cc model, TR5 probably, in 1964.
And this is a Matchless GC3 'Trials' model, ridden by Dick Eaton (brother of the Phil above).
That's Bill in his mom's lap, again in '64. I love the 'mouth organ' badge on these early 60's Triumphs; both are unit-construction 500's, set up for dirt riding.
Bill on the back of his father's Triumph; riding in deep sand like this takes considerable skill!The bottom photo shows Ronn Blumke cresting a dune on his TR6 650cc Triumph. The dunes are blown continually by an eastward wind, and develop a sharp slope on the leeside (east slope); sand is often cascading down these steep slopes, which are called the 'slipface'. They're the best side to ride up if you want to catch some air at the top!
