Anything I can do about sore neck? Position is fine aside from the fact that keeping my head angled upwards so I can see gives me neck pain after a few hours.

Let me just pre-reject some "solutions":
- replace bike/cockpit - no
- stop looking where I'm going - no
- belay glasses - maybe
Really what I want is stretching and/or strengthening exercises or something

Can you not raise your bars? Flip stem, shorter stem, different angle on the stem?
If you wear glasses, make sure the frames aren't in your way so you're angling your head to see.

Probably could get a few mm of adjustment vertically. I don't think it'll be enough to solve the issue though. But I'll try that, and the yoga, and actually riding the bike, and see how I get on
