In the first 50-70 miles it's a good idea to create load situations on the engine. In other words, rev the engine in any gear (depends on the road, speed limit, traffic, etc) and lift off the throttle, creating load. Allow the rpms to come down to around 1500 and then do it again several times. This seats the rings and creates pressure between the components to allow for proper bonding. There are a 1000+ opinions on "proper" break in so I don't want to open a can of worms here but this is something several engine builders have told me over the decades.
