Regular cycling shorts.. But, before I got to work I'd put a pair of soccer shorts over my cycling shorts. Did not want to show my quads to the secretaries..
Luckily, with my long hours, I'd have time to rinse out my bike gear and have it dry before I return home.
If I had a commute that long I'd wear cycling shorts. Otherwise I'd end up with sores.
I have a 4 mile commute though, so no special clothes for me. I'd probably wear regular shorts up to about a 10 mile commute. Anything much beyond 20 miles of riding in one day and I begin to despise jeans.
