Alison 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]
