I rode my bike to the Strawberry Canyon pool today. I swam in my bike shorts & sports top. In triathlons, most people wear the same thing for all 3 events - the swim, bike & run. So I wanted to test out a top and get a feel for it. They do make special "tri shorts" that are quick drying bike shorts, are a bit shorter than most bike shorts and the "chamois" pad is a bit thinner, covers less area and dries quickly. I was wearing a regular pair of bike shorts. The swim was fine, the bike home was a little chilly.
here's the swim workout I did:
