HTML5, CSS3, PHP, jQuery

1868 Racing is a small, independent bicycle shop, nestled in the heart of the Snowdonia National park. They had an existing website which needed redesigning with some new content so that the site reflected the services and products that 1868 racing offer.

The site was designed by Pete Borlace Design Solutions and I was brought into the project to turn his designs into a fully functioning website.

The website was built using HTML5 and uses the HTML5 shiv so that the code can be styled using CSS in earlier versions of Internet Explorer.

The site uses my PHP templating system so that the header, navigation and footer can be applied dynamically throughout the site so that it’s easy to add new navigation items in future when required.

The biggest aspect of functionality was within the news section where the content is pulled dynamically directly from the 1868 racing Facebook page so that the admin of the site only has to update their Facebook page in order to add new, fresh content to their website.
