Nah, Skully and MikeC are right. This method is the shit. Bike is upright, rear wheel is loose in the dropouts. Sit on the ground behind the rear wheel, place both feet in the pedals so that bike is steady and you have the wheel in between your legs. Pull wheel towards you with one hand until chain is tight, tighten bolts with the other hand. Done.
