HM bread

I am wanting some home made bread for tomorrow as we are going away for the week and will be arriving at dinner time and another member of my family is making a pan of soup to have when we arrive. I am at work tomorrow and want to leave immediately so wont have time to do anything tomorrow so I was wondering if this would be ok. Basically my plan is to make the bread dough in my bread maker today, shape it, oil it and put it on a baking tray covered in cling film ready to put in the oven when we get to our lodge. Will this work? I know I can put it in the dough ball unshaped in the fridge and then shape tomorrow but I wont have time so will it still rise ok after being shaped and refridgerated and then baked from there?

Thanks in advance.

Can you not programme your breadmaker to cook overnight, that is what I do then you will have a nice fresh loaf tomorrow morning plus the lovely aroma of hot bread when you wake up

I dont want to cook it before we go, I want to take it with me to cook in the oven when we get there. I wont have time tomorrow to do anything other than put it in the car so that is why I want to know if I can do everything up to the point of cooking it then put it in the fridge until tomorrow when I get home from work and then take it out and take it with me uncooked.

i think the problem with that is that it will probably deflate while you travel. then you will have to re knead and hope that it rises again and in time to eat it.
