In my experience it does get better. When I first switched to a road bike I got a lot of neck ache and even twinges from looking back over my shoulder. Although I have shortened the stem and put an online post on and have compact bars to make the bike fit me better now, I'm sure a bit of the easing of the aching is to do with me conditioning to the position.
