I would do 150-200 miles of gentle braking. If you use them too hard they just won't stop you! Also worth remembering, I know its obvious but, it needs to be the sort of mileage that you actually use them on. 100 or so miles on the motorway ain't gonna be enough. After this bedding period you will start to notice more grip, then its time to play

Oh, just an after thought, did you clean the disc surface with white spirit to remove any surface grease?
