I think that the horror stories about break-in time are greatly over stated but I still think that it takes around 100 miles to get the saddle and your tushie acclimated.

Not a Brooks fan but I reckon for 4 or 5 rides to attune and adjust a new saddle but add in a new butt and mileage will be higher.

Keep adjusting and riding but give it a couple of days before riding again.
