What are the two extra pieces of lose velcro for? Laying across the top of my rack.
It's strange on how they only attach on one side. Without gear in them they look like they're going into the rear tire.
I put the velcro straps that wrap about the rack between the 2nd & 3rd cross velcro instead of the 1st and 2nd.
Does this look right?

Looks about right. What do you mean only on one side? The extra velcro seems to be in case the front-back velcros are too short. Those thinner velcros serve to prevent fore-aft movement. Your panniers are far back on the rack, so there's more chance of bouncing into the wheel. Move them forward if heel clearance allows. I was worried about contact with the wheel since I was mountain biking. That's why I used a strap (or two) to connect those D-rings one can see in your photo. That tightens things up and greatly reduces movement of the bottom corners of the bags. If you do this, make the connection only tight enough to prevent movement; you don't want much load on the D-rings since they're not designed for it.
