Alison Marie Tetrick (born April 4, 1985) is an American racing cyclist.^[3] She rode at the 2014 UCI Road World Championships.

Tetrick comes from a sporting family – her grandfather, Paul Tetrick, won more than a dozen national time trial titles, whilst her father played American football for UCLA and subsequently competed in mountain biking. Alison competed as a tennis player whilst at college, becoming an All-American,^[4] before she took up elite competition in triathlon as an amateur after graduating. She switched to cycling after attending a USA Cycling Talent ID camp in 2008.^[1] In November 2015 she was announced as part of the inaugural squad for the Cylance Pro Cycling team for the 2016 season.^[5]

In 2017 she won Unbound Gravel in Kansas, a race billed as one of the world's top ranked gravel races. She also finished on the podium of the events in 2018 and 2019, even though she had retired as a pro cyclist and no longer rode with a pro team. In 2020, it was cancelled due to COVID-19, but she entered it again in 2021 and placed just outside the top 10. She entered the race again in 2022, but this time she was not targeting a high finish, rather she concentrated on pacing other riders to the finish.^[6]
