I am also mainly a cyclist and completely agree that swimming is a great way to change your body. It tones up your upper body SO much. And quickly too as long as you're diligent.
We swam at the quarry. It is a quarry off Braker between 183 and Mopac. A company called pure austin purchased it and they have it marked off for an 800m swim around the bouys. The swim went well but the water was kind of cool (71degrees). I realized I was not stretching out as much so kind of tired myself out a bit early. I did however make it all the way around without touching any of the bouys to rest.
