Default Disabled Scooter on Beach

Just looking for ideas. My wife uses a disabled scooter and living
right beside the sea she would like to make use of it. However its a
shingle beach at the top and sand at the bottom and the scooter just
stalls on the shingle bit. I was thinking of laying some sort of
matting down to go over the shingle, say two lengths which I could
keep repositioning etc. Any ideas about what could be used?
I have tried a more powerful scooter with big wheels with the same
result, I even thought about electric quad bike but perhaps not very
practicable and difficult to get except in child versions so any other
ideas appreciated.


Sounds like a job for DIY catterpillar tracks to me :-)

Had crossed my mind too, where would you get the tracks from, and how
would you keep them on?
