I remember reading on here (or maybe somewhere else) someone recommending to not have a lockring on a fixed wheel for a bike used on the road, on the basis that if the pedals were to lock up unintentionally (eg if the chain jammed) the cog would just unscrew instead of the rear wheel locking up abruptly. Make of that what you will!
