You have to loosen the rearmost set of fender stays with a 10 mm wrench (I carry a Park Tool MT-1) and the fender is flexible enough to remove the wheel. Getting the wheel back on requires pulling the chain back and over the cassette, so a pair of nitrile gloves comes in handy. Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy. This is with PB fenders, of course.
