I am fortunate to have two excellent road bikes that I enjoy riding, one is a bit more comfortable on longer rides while the other is a bit faster. I will be supported by the gf who will carry among other things one of these spare bikes in case the primary one has an issue.
Question being would it be an advantage to rotate bikes say every 20 miles to change body position slightly ?
People will find any number of ways to overthink their first century. The most important thing is to get on the bike in the morning, and keep turning the pedals all day. Just keep doing that, and you'll get a century.
