The camping field has toilets and a few showers in a very simple conditions, but it is the total Rockin' Rollin' Car and Bike meeting in the world!
Very simple means the camp "Backamo Lagerplats", where in the year of 1945 from all over Sweden foreign soldiers were gathered, did not change very much since that.
These big boys were fascinated of the American post-WW II styling of motorcycles and hot rods and also liked the style of clubs that came out of this era. The name A-Bombers came from the word A-bomb which of course meant Atomic Bomb, but the main reason these guys chose it was in the meaning of a highly tuned old car: a hot rod! A journey into the past when the war (seemed) to be over. With music composed nowadays by Kent Vikmo, one of the founders of the A-Bombers performed by himself and his bands.
With live performed Rock 'n Roll, Rockabilly, Swing and Country music by Jack Baymoore & The Bandits, The Tennessee Drifters, Nosey Joe & The Poolkings, Little Ace a.o.
