I did the "quick release clips" thing like Jay. http://www.flickr.com/photos/16951...@n08/3476231554/sizes/o/
I have removed the rear wheel (most recently to add a fixed cog) by unclipping the fender stays from the quick release clips. When the chain is in the small chainring, the axle is at the very end of the slots anyway, it's only another 1/2 inch till it is free.
