I think I'll give it some butt in seat time to see how it goes as maybe it is just something I need to condition. It's only a little bit sore when I am riding but more so when trying to get off the bike (I am the least limber person I know so it's comical watching me try to get off the bike, even more so when it's mounted on the Kickr). Thanks for all of your input, it gives me a lot to think about.
IMO, you have the right approach.

For me, if my butt hurts a little while I'm in the saddle and then hurts more when I take the pressure off, that means that my butt is not "in shape" and I need to get re-accustomed to more time in the saddle. YMMV
