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 as a pacer for other riders.[6]
