Thanks for your reply, Sahil. I'm just new to the animation stuff. JS and jQuery are no problem. I understand the basics of transformation and know the CSS transformation properties. I had a look at the learning section but I assume I can't get it done just with the basics.
Would be nice to get some pokes in the right direction. I assume the "Animation along path" is what I need?

EDIT: I just saw that my CodePen wasn't saved ... So I understand why you directed me to the learning section
