Bomb around is casual slang meaning to drive around — typically fast, carelessly, or aimlessly. It suggests movement with energy but without a clear destination: you're not going anywhere in particular, just moving with speed or enthusiasm. British and Australian usage is common. The 'bomb' element implies velocity and casual abandon rather than destruction.
