Practically born on horseback, Maikel is the son of the Dutch multi-medal rider Eric van der Vleuten. He joined the classic circuit by representing the Netherlands on the international pony circuit from the age of 13.
Very quickly, he crossed paths with the stallion Verdi, whom he trained to the highest level and who brought him a team silver medal at the London Olympic Games.
