If you are tall enough you can straddle the bike and push yourself off the stand.

If you aren't tall enough, stand beside the bike and grab the bars. Push the bike forward leaving your back foot in front of the wheels on the stand. The stand will hit your foot and tip forward dropping the bike onto the ground.

Exactly, I either push the bike forward or reach back and kick the stand down while on the bike.
